From the first link you posted, start at the "fdisk -l" stage only use "sudo fdisk -l" instead (without the quotes) so you can identify your drive. Then continue with the guide.

I had my system running just the way I wanted but decided to fiddle with it and now I have had to do a re-install.
I am having a couple of problems.
I have installed beta version of Dharma.
I want to edit the menu.lst so that I can change the names of the OS and also the boot time. When I attempt this by typing sudo pico /boot/grub/menu.lst in terminal, all I get is a blank page. There is nothing in there to edit.
I also want to have my drive from my windows 7 partition visible in XBMC, no luck there either.

You see two...but # means that the line is commented out.
Remove from the the other line...or both, it does not matter.

D8AE6AFAAE6AD094 and E89652139651E31C do not show up in add sources. They show up when I FTp into the XBMC Live box and browse to /media.
What shows up is the Volume name. One was formatted on WIN7 and given a volume name of "STORAGE" and the other one was formatted EXT4 and also given a volume name of "STORAGE".
This debacle was done unintentionally as the EXT4 (1TB drive) was added to my previous Live installation 9 months ago and NTFS (2TB) drive was added to the new Live install Yesterday.
Is there a way to change the Volume name of a Drive in Linux? I know I can pop the 2TB drive back into windows, right click the drive in My Computer and rename it.
So how do I do that from terminal in XBMC Live?

I'm trying to automount my internal hd as well but whenever I type /etc/default/grub into the terminal I get a command not found response. same thing with update-grub.
Any ideas?

Is there any update on this for XBMCbuntu 12 Frodo Beta 3? From what I have gathered, the following steps are necessary (sorry, total Linux nub):
- Press Ctrl+Alt+F2 to get a command line
- Login as "xbmc" password blank
- Remove "nodiskmount" token from /etc/default/grub using nano: "sudo nano /etc/default/grub"
- Run "sudo update-grub"
Does this kind of correctly reflect what is necessary?
Thanks and Cheers - Don

This was obsolete in eden and I assume also in Frodo.
You need to mount it in fstab
