| 137856 | 2003-04-22 09:45:00 | Quite simply, can I do it? I know I can read/write to FAT16/32 in Linux, and Read-Only for NTFS partitions, but what about reading Ext3/2 in Windows? Im not sure what RedHat 9 partitions them as.. Ext2 or 3? But anyways, can it be done? Cheers Chill. |

There is however a program called Explore2fs which has a common Explorer style interface which will allow you to view the contents of an ext2 or ext3 drive or partition. You can find it here: uranus.it.swin.edu.au |

| 137859 | 2003-04-22 10:19:00 | Explore2FS is good and I've used it for reading/copying files from Linux to Windows. It's simple to use too. There's also a driver for windows that allows you to read/write linux partitions. I had a look at it but thought it's just like NTFS support for linux. You've got a big chance of screwing everything up so I got rid of it. |
