[luau] I need help

Felipe,

    First, you're going about it the correct way, but you need a few 
changes. Change your filesystem to VFAT instead of FAT32. When Linux 
writes files to FAT32, Windows cannot always read the filenames. Second, 
as posted before, make sure that your mount points are correct.

Example:

mount -t vfat /dev/hda5 /mnt/windows

ls /mnt/windows/

That should allow everything to work. Just make sure that if you want 
Windows to see the files, that you put them in the /mnt/windows (or 
whatever you name it) directory.
