For example you have just installing a new partition using gparted, now you could do these steps to access your new partition:
$ cd /
$ sudo mkdir /data
$ sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hda4 /data
Now you already access the new partition. If you want to check whether your new partition already mounted, use this command:
$ df -h
if you don’t want to access your partition each time your computer restarting, execute:
$ sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.backup
$ sudo nano /etc/fstab
And add this new line on the fstab.
/dev/hda4 /data ext3 nodev,nosuid 0 2
Save the file and iexit.
What if it doesn’t work?
If anything goes wrong, you could use livecd linux and copy fstab.backup that you have backuped by executing
$ sudo mv /etc/fstab.backup /etc/fstab
