So suse detected drive with fat32 on it(this disk was external one before in that stupid box with sata/usb converter whitch i just took out and instaled, drive working fine under winxp or hackintosh i had instaled before) i tried to mount dev but cant find it in file system. i 'know that this is very stupid problem, so i hope even it is some one can help me
Thank’s
PS: close the window and shut the gates 
You need to edit /etc/fstab as guided here:
openSUSE: HowTo set disk access permissions for Fat32 (VFAT) on a desktop PC
Using a text editor: First create a directory in a convenient location; e.g. /windows/C. Then open fstab in a superuser text editor with either of these commands in a terminal window:
- • If you are using KDE: kdesu kwrite /etc/fstab
- • If you are using Gnome: gnomesu gedit /etc/fstab
When the file opens enter this line in the bottom:
/dev/sdb1 /windows/C vfat users,gid=users,umask=0002,utf8=true 0 0
done thank’s lot for help
