This worked great in Windoze and after the transfer I was able to reboot the new drive (after restoring LILO) and the old drive is now seen as another hd. I would like to be able to access this drive in Linux. I am using PCLinuxOS .92 (a fork of Mandriva) 2.6.13 kernel. KDE system info shows the pcmcia as an ata/ide hard drive but it does not show when I fdisk -l. Any ideas how i can access and then mount this drive in Linux? serge BTW: Just loaded a live CD of Puppy Linux. See's this drive fine. Wazz up with that?? UPDATE: Loaded Knoppix and it sees the drive too. What are these two doing that PCLOS is not?? Any sugggestions? Last edited by sergestorm; 01-13-2006 at 12:02 PM.
