[quote][i]Originally posted by willay[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by ed[/i] If you make yourself a Linux partition then most distros come with GRUB which will allow you to dual boot your system into Windows or Linux, you won't be able to look at your Windows files under Linux though and vice versa because of the different file systems in use. [/quote] Um, no Ed? what are you on about? If hes using a typical Windows file system such as FAT32 or NTFS he can mount it under Linux fine and read/write. As you can see from my df output below, I've mounted my 1TB NTFS external hard drive under FreeBSD... [willay@ ~]$ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/ad3s1a 989M 317M 593M 35% / devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% /dev /dev/ad3s1e 989M 2.4M 908M 0% /tmp /dev/ad3s1f 220G 60G 142G 30% /usr /dev/ad3s1d 1.9G 585M 1.2G 32% /var linprocfs 4.0K 4.0K 0B 100% /usr/compat/linux/proc [b]/dev/fuse0 932G 643G 288G 69% /mnt/usbdisk[/b] [willay@ ~]$ [/quote]
