hmm ... let me get this correct. If the above output is while your USB
disks are connected, then is sdb one of your USB disks? Is Ubuntu
installed on its first partition (sdb1)? Also, was the second USB disk
also connected when you gave the above command?

In any case, sdb1 partition cannot be seen from XP since it is an ext3
filesystem (XP doesn't support that).

The first drive has XP on it and does not show upon the above output
from terminal. Ubuntu is installed on /dv/sdb1 this is the drive
shown inthe terminal output and it is an internal drive. I then have
/dev/sdc1 ( usb drive) this drive has media on it. The last drive is
/dev/sdd1 (USB drive) this drive is empty.
