Welcome, below is my list of common Linux problems and how to fix them, if you would like help with a problem please post it. I assume you are using Bash as the terminal. Q: How do I mount my Windows partition? A: Most file systems should be safe to mount and to write to except NTFS, you should only mount a NTFS file systems as RO (read-only) if you write to a NTFS file system you may damage data. Below is an example of how to mount a FAT32 partition: 1. First make a folder to mount the file system onto, such as '/mnt/windows' 2. Open fstab in '/etc' 3. Add the line: /dev/hda2 /mnt/windows vfat defaults 0 0 (change '/dev/hda2' to where you windows partition is, to find out where it is type 'fdisk -l') (change '/mnt/windows' to where you want to mount the partition) (change vfat if your not using a FAT file system) (leave at defualts unless there is a problem, use 'ro' if it's a NTFS file system!) ( '0 0' do not change unless there is a problem) 4. Save and reboot More to be added soon when I get some free time Remember to post if you have a problem. |
