MP3's on another partition

Leary664 · 08-07-2004, 10:55 AM

Hi All,
I have redhat installed on my second hard drive and winblows XP on my first hard drive.
Question... How can I access all my MP3's on the winblows drive when I'm running linux?

Any thoughts. Thanks
Leary

simply by browsing into /mnt/windows if you have only one partition for windows or /mnt/win_<letter> if you have 2 or more partitions for windows

first of all find ur win xp partition by
#fdsik /dev/hda

then 'p' at the fdisk prompt

say if it is /dev/hda1

so mount ur win xp drive by
#mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/win_c

here u should have win_c
folder in ur /mnt dir.
if not make one

if your winxp partition is ntfs, you'll have trouble for writing on it (if you want).
you must compile a new kernel with the option corresponding to that to fix the writing problem.

hi there

redhat 9.0 does not even read support on NTFS partition

take care
