viewing partition details from windows


Recommended Posts

I am not sure whether I have posted this string before.

On my Dell Inspiron 1150 laptop I have

Windows C (NTFS) on hard disk partition sda2, Windows D (FAT) on sda9 and openSUSE 10.3 on other partitions.

From my linux platform I can see them and their occupancy.

How shall I do that from my Windows platform?

Thanks.

It's most likely that you formatted your Suse partition as ext3 which Windows cannot see

you can download some drivers that will enable Windows to see it

from here:http://www.fs-driver.org/

there are other options described here :

but I never tried them

All the 3 options work for ext2/ext3 filesystem for linux.

Unfortunately I have mounted the linux as reiserfs.

So I have to be patient for the time being.

Thanks all the same, for your mail may help others with the appropriate filesystems.
