[SuSE Linux] Reading linux partition in DOS
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Hi there everyone and all the best for the 1999.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2>Is it possible (i.e. are there any utilities around) to read/access/copy files on a linux partition from MS DOS. I have a utility to access NT partitions called ntfsdos and am trying to find a similar utility for linux. I dual boot W98/Linux on the same box and sometimes I need to access files in my linux partition which means I have to reboot into linux.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2>Any help would be greatly appreciated.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2>tia,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2>Keith Gibbons.</FONT></DIV>
