Unmounted, neither Linux nor MS-Window use it.

/dev/hda3          1085      1191    808920   16  Hidden FAT16

I have 768MB of RAM.

Not mounted

No.

No.  I use hda3 (but it is the second on the disk).

I guessed primary, but don't know.

No, this is for recovery (restoring harddisk to factory state).
