I was wondering how one would copy a folder of items from a windows partition, in this case a game i play(using wine) to a linux partition. The folder is quite large but on the same 2tb HDD i have, so i couldn't use any of my usb's and unfortunately my 1tb external quit out on me some months back. Im going to be tinkering around with it but if anyone could save me some time and fill me in on how it is possible it would be great, Thanks

Since it is located on the same hard drive there is probably no need at all to "copy or move" it to another media. You certainly know which partition (NTFS or FAT32 maybe) the folders are located. You only need mount it into your GNU/Linux system.
Create a mount point:
Code:
sudo mkdir /media/mygame
Then mount the NTFS/FAT partition into it:
Code:
sudo mount -t vfat -o rw /dev/sda{your_ntfspartition} /media/mygame
Check if it is there
Under my slackware it works that easy.
Hope that helps.
m.m.
