Alright, i got a second internal hardrive for my "craptop" (its what i call my xubuntu computer :D) and it is a 40gb one. However in an effort to make both theoriginal and this new harddrive work i ended up installing Xubuntu on both, but much to my dismay that did not work. After some forum searching i eventually discovered that i had to mount the first harddrive in order for it to be useable. So i floowed these instructions and when i went to run the "sudo mount -a" command i got a weird error,

mount: wribg fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda. missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so

so i tried that command but it didnt help me any.... please help mee
