For some reason you can browse to the windows directory and the C: prompt but after that you can't go anywhere, but SuSE congifures that automatically, so that is nice. SO you can download things in XP leave them on the root and then boot in SuSE and pull them across, too bad it does not work the other way around. -----Original Message----- From: John [mailto:jfmurphy@charter.net] Sent: Monday, April 08, 2002 6:08 PM To: suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: Re: [SLE] SuSE + WinXP machine On Sun, 7 Apr 2002 21:54:01 -0400, you wrote:
LILO works just fine to boot WinXP. You can also go in the opposite direction and boot Linux from WinXP boot menu. This is actually better in some ways if the boot partition stays FAT32, because it gives you only 1 boot menu no matter which OS you use.
One question as XP is going on the wife's side soon. On the KDE desktop in Suse can you open up a NTFS disk on the XP side like you do in Win98 fat32? Do you just change the file type from vfat to NTFS in fstab. Sounds to easy, am I hoping to much here John -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com
