hey jhon
when you say access do you mean select it to boot? if so you would add to the menu.1st this ->
timeout 1
color cyan/blue white/blue
foreground ffffff
background 0639a1
gfxmenu /boot/grub/message
title MEPIS at hdb2, kernel 2.6.15-1-586tsc
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-1-586tsc root=/dev/hdb2 nomce quiet vga=791
title Windows at hda1
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
title MEMTEST
kernel /boot/memtest86.bin
if you mean as in accessing from linux it would be in /etc/fstab ->
/dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 ntfs noauto,users,exec,ro,umask=0222 0 0
so you would just need to adjust for where you have windows installed, mine is on the first partion of the master hd. If your not sure what the /dev/hd? or the (hd?,?) is let me know where you have it installed and i'll write it with your setup so all you have to do is copy it. sorry i haven't been online(work). I'll be home this weeekend if you want to IM to fix it. take care jhon.
