You can define the initial position in your .xinitrc or in your system's
xinitrc.

You got to mount your dos partition, e.g.
mount -t msdos /dev/hda2 dosc
where -t defines the file system, /dev/hdax or sdax the partition and
dosc the mount point.

For help type "man mount"...

As far as I know LINUX can also read/write to the revised FAT filesystem used
in Win 95.
