Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3378424 By: nobody ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The prob is this...I had xp installed on my machine with 3 hdd's...all drives were ntfs and were converted to dynamic...well that was all working fine until windows crashed on me. So I reinstalled. The drive that I put windows on was formated completely and the second drive is able to be seen with all the information that was there....but the 3rd drive where all my music and movies and such was stored can no longer be accessed by windows....under disc mngr it shows the drive but it says unreadable.....so I loaded my linux cd in hopes of coping the information to another drive....no go....and from reading other posts it looks like you can't write to a ntfs disk/partition through linux...so anyone got any ideas as to what I can do to get the data off the disc so that I can reformat that drive and continue using it? I havn't found a way for windows to recongize the drive in anyway shape or form...though I'm sure there is something that I havn't done.....thanks for any help any of you can provide.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ You can mount the NTFS partition read-write with ntfsmount. ntfsmount /dev/hda3 /mnt/win "Limited write support!" Or, if there's NTFS support in the kernel, mount it read-only. mount -t ntfs -o ro /dev/hda3 /mnt/win See if linux can access the partition and take it from there. The RIP rescue system has ntfsmount etc. http://www.tux.org/pub/people/kent-robotti/looplinux/rip ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.
