You should be able to do this quite easily by editing your /etc/fstab file.
Here is mine for an example of how it should be done so that it is
automatic...

/dev/hda1               /                       ext2    defaults        1 1
/dev/hda2               swap                    swap    defaults        0 0
/dev/hdb1       /mnt/msdos                      vfat    defaults        0 0
