I have windows, mandrake, and fedora core 4 on one hard disk
I want to copy files from windows and mandrake using fedora
I a long time ago I used to edit
the fstab file and add a few entries
for mandrake I put in this
/dev/hda5 /mandrake ext3 defaults 1 2
and for windows I put in this
/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs umask=0022,nls=utf8,ro 0 0
then on the command line do a >_exportfs
I think fedora has changed to using a fstab-sync
program, but I dont know how to use that program to
add the other two partitions.
can someone point me in the direction of a tutorial
or quickly explain how to add the other two other
partitions to the file system so I can read the files.
Distribution: Fedora 18, Puppy Linux, various others
