I have 2 hard disks ( 160GB+40GB) . In my secondary HDD(40GB) i have 3 partitions. 

primary - fat32
extended
1) ntfs
2) fat32

now i will list the output of commands i typed, tell me how to mount the fat32 drive in the extended partition,

---------------------------------------
bash-3.00# prtpart /dev/dsk/c0d1p0 -ldevs

Fdisk information for device /dev/dsk/c0d1p0

** NOTE **
/dev/dsk/c0d1p0      - Physical device referring to entire physical disk
/dev/dsk/c0d1p1 - p4 - Physical devices referring to the 4 primary partitions
/dev/dsk/c0d1p5 ...  - Virtual devices referring to logical partitions

Virtual device names can be used to access EXT2 and NTFS on logical partitions

/dev/dsk/c0d1p1 WIN95 FAT32(Upto 2047GB)
/dev/dsk/c0d1p2 WIN95 Extended(LBA)
/dev/dsk/c0d1p5 IFS: NTFS
/dev/dsk/c0d1p6 WIN95 FAT32(Upto 2047GB)

bash-3.00# ls -dF /mnt/old[cde]drive
/mnt/oldcdrive/  /mnt/oldddrive/  /mnt/oldedrive/
bash-3.00# mount -F pcfs /dev/dsk/c0d1p1 /mnt/oldcdrive/
bash-3.00# mount -F ntfs /dev/dsk/c0d1p5 /mnt/oldddrive/
bash-3.00# mount -F pcfs /dev/dsk/c0d1p6 /mnt/oldedrive/
mount: No such file or directory
bash-3.00#
---------------------------------------

I can mount my primary drive but not the extended one.
