Kieth Posted January 23, 2003 Report Share Posted January 23, 2003 At times I would like to save a file in Windows. Is it possible? If so, how? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest anon Posted January 23, 2003 Report Share Posted January 23, 2003 Yes, easy. Do a search on fstab or permissions. There are plenty of examples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bouddha Posted January 23, 2003 Report Share Posted January 23, 2003 It depends on the type of your windows partition. If it's formated as FAT, it's ok, you heve full access on it. if it's as NTFS, you can't write on it, just read... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannonfodder Posted January 23, 2003 Report Share Posted January 23, 2003 Try going to /mnt and looking for folders such as win_c. By default, you may not have write access. You need to edit your /etc/fstab file to obtain this write access. This file is processed on boot to establish how a partition is available to users. This topic is discussed frequently so do some searching on the following keywords fstab vfat or fstab ntfs (for windows 2k or win xp) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
