Drive Sharing on a dual boot (kubuntu/win2000)
 

Hi everyone,

i'm new to the whole kubuntu/linux thing, so you're all going to have to be a little patient with me. i have a few issues/questions, but i'm going try and tackle them one by one, with your help hopefully.

my first issue is as follows. I recently put a new hard drive in my computer that currently had win2000 installed. i left the existing hard drive as is and installed kubunutu on the new hard drive, with the intention on having them both run on a dual boot. This works fine.

The only problem i'm having is that i'm unable to access the win2000 hard drive from kubuntu. the media folder only has my 2 cd/dvd drives and floppy. after reading around abit on these forums i figured out how to unhide hidden files and get into the dev folder. I don't have enough permission to read the hda, hda1, hdb, hdb2, hdb5 subfolders (i was sorta hoping my win2000 drive was hiding somewhere in there...

any help would be appreciated :)

Could you please open a terminal, type:

due to the lack of response here i decided to try the newbies board...

thanks for your help.. cut a long story short i figured out how to mount basically, but i still cant access the mount folder due to permissions and i cant figure out how to chmod it, due to the fact its a "read-only file system"
