can u pls check this once
And after that when i go to # prompt and type yum , it says bash: yum: command not found
you've a lot of windows partitions?! which one are you trying to access?
where have you downloaded the yum rpm? please give the link to the page!
It looks like the rpm was written with coded users in some superuser group. Since they do not exist, the root user is assumed.
As for the windows partitions:
HOW-TO mount NTFS partition? - LinuxQuestions.org should give you some help.
essentially, you should modify your /etc/fstab for permanent mounts when the system boots. Either that or autofs for auto mounts on access would work.
You are going to have to create directories to be used as mount points.
If you wish, you could point them to directories on your desktop, or you could point them to directories off of / and create symbolic links
It comes down to preference.
