Re: [PLUG] fstab for mounting windows partitions

["Forge XP" <forge@dca.net>]

Actually, if you're using an EXT2 or EXT3 partition for your home
directories, you can use a little program called explore2fs to read-only
access any EXT2/3 drives in your machine. I use it all the time to get at my
Linux files, since my large drives pretty much neccesitate NTFS over FAT32
for Windows space.

If you'd like, I can attach it to a private reply.
