Windows won't read or recognise linux partitions (ext2/3 etc etc). However there is a program called explore2fs, which can allow you to read, only read, linux partitions.
Its very basic and takes LOTS of cpu power. I use it all the time when i'm not bothered to reboot to linux to check something. Or i usually save most of my work on a fat32 and symlink it to my home. > Hi all, > My wifes windows XP machine is almost redundant and I have been > trying to > backup my gentoo box over the network onto a spare disk in the other > machine. > I am just lost I cannot get windows to see gentoo. > I have managed to transfer files the other way i.e. windoes to > gentoo. > > Could anybody point me in the right direction or suggest any docs > that will > lay out the procedure. > > Thanks in anticipation > regards > Paul > -- > ********** This message has been sent using GENTOO Linux and kmail > ********* > > > -- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > > ------------------------------------------------- Please wait while you are redirected to my signature...... -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
