How to access files on Windows from Linux
Hi
To access files on Windows you have to do the following
1. created a new directory and call it something like: win
2. Find out the partition where Windows is on and then use the mount command
I'm not sure how much Mandrake Linux differs from Red Hat but I assume that they are the same when it comes to the command line
Example
======
Create a new directory under your home
mkdir win
Find out the partitoin where Windos is located, you can use the fdisk command
fdisk /dev/hda
I'm assuming you have one hard disk and that the fdisk command is under /usr/bin. If you use the command and get an error that the command is not found, then try /sbin/fdisk
A list will be printed of the different partitions on the hard disk. find out which partition is for Windows. Suppose that Windows is on /dev/hda1, then
su (you have to become root user )l
mount /dev/hda1 win
After this you can access the files on your windows partition
cd win
find out where the Linux files are and copy them into Linux filesystem using the 'cp' command
For exmple
cp linux_file.tar.gz /home/abdullah
I hope this was clear enough. If you want more details, let me know.
Peace out.
