It sounds like you're trying to use an external USB drive (probably formatted as NTFS) with Ubuntu.
You should be able to plug it in, and it should "just work". Check out these links: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=430297 http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_edgy_eft_ntfs_ntfs_3g PS: In years past, there were issues with using NTFS in read/write mode (as opposed to read-only). In newer versions of Ubuntu, this shouldn't be a problem. *Especially* for USB drives. PPS: If the drive is exported as a network share, on a separate Windows/Vista PC, that's different. Then you're talking "Samba": http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubunt...s-using-samba/ http://www.goitexpert.com/entry.cfm?...-Share--UBUNTU |
You have a laptop with an external drive connected to it?? Which has Ubuntu? which has vista? Assuming you are able to boot Ubuntu and can't see vista, did you create a mount point for vista in Ubuntu? Do you have an entry for vista in /etc/fstab file?
