Without knowing anything else about your system setup, I'd wager that
you've already got something else mounted to /hd and it's trying to mount
into the existing filesystem that's there already. Type mount at the
command prompt and see where everything is mounted already.

Is it possible that /dev/hda1 is already mounted somewhere (would this
generate an error of this type)? I don't know about that, maybe someone
else does.
