SATA hard drive problems connecting?
Hi
I currently have a 1 80 gig hard drive and 1 320gig sata hard drive. My main linux system is on the 80gig hard drive, but all my saved files from windows is on that 320gig hard drive. Is there anyway of accessing it in linux? Or will i have to install windows again to access it, i dont want to lose the data on the hard drive either. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks |
You should be able to access it. Try to mount it with the "ntfs" option as the used file system (or "vfat" if it is an old FAT32 Windows partition). To get read and write access you need the ntfs-3g package.
Example: If you have a sda1 partition with NTFS and a mount point "/mnt/i-want-my-data" you can try to mount it in a terminal window: Code:
mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mnt/i-want-my-data |
