How do I open a mounted drive in Linux?

# Open a command-line terminal (select Applications > Accessories > Terminal), and then type the following command to mount /dev/sdb1 at /media/newhd/. You need to create a mount point using the mkdir command. This will be the location from which you will access the /dev/sdb1 drive.

How can I see which drive is mounted?

To find out what drives are mounted you can check /etc/mtab , which is a list of all devices mounted on the system.
