Good, so you've got quite a few partitions on the disk that should be
mountable. Next, make sure you've got ntfs support in your kernel with
`grep ntfs /proc/filesystems`. If you get no output, you don't have support
for ntfs and that's the root of the problem.
If that's the case, load the driver with `modprobe ntfs`. (Redo the grep
above if you want.) Then mount up the fs and you'll be good to go. If you
want that driver to load on boot, just add it to the list in /etc/modules.
