[aclug-L] Re: Accessing Non Linux partitions

[Jesse Kaufman <kaufmjes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

i usually use vfat, so that the files stay in windoze's longfilename
format... otherwhise everything will be truncated to the eight-dot-three
format...

/dev/hd* depends on your system...  my windoze drive/partition is
/dev/hda1 (primary master)... i also have a windoze partition at
/dev/hdd1, which is on the secondary slave...  on that same drive,
(/dev/hdd2) is my home partition, and /dev/hdd3 is my linux swap...
