just add the lines to /etc/fstab
for eg:
if you needed to mount a vfat partition, say, sda1 then you add:
/dev/sda1 /media/mount_point vfat defaults 0 0
Note: if your partitions are ntfs then you need special drivers: install
ntfs-3g and ntfsprogs
then you add the line
/dev/sda5 /media/ddrive ntfs-3g defaults 0 0
you should be good to go
