    How to share files with WinXP?

    Hi all Worked great for me, now I can save and share audio samples from one to another (files too of course). here is what I did: - installed win2K * with 100kb for boot loader non-formatted (hda1) * with no partition on a 5G drive (c:/hda2) * format FAT32 on 5G on second drive - installed linux with an extra partition in vfat * on 10G drive (hdb1) * vfat as/ on the FAT32 (5G) (f:/hdb2) in linux: - logged in as /root su - created share dir: mkdir share - mounted hdb2 with: mount -t vfat /dev/hdb2 /mnt/share the link works when rebooting it doesn`t work, so... edited fstab with emacs: - emacs /etc/fstab and added /dev/hdb2 /mnt/share vfat default 0 0 in it now works great! THX for the tip! I`ll try to implement with XP next... FYI the distro I use is Fedora Core 3 Test and it rocks as far as I`m concerned! Good luck! ========== In the past, on a dual boot with XP I encountered the following on reboot: Rootnoverify(hd0,0) Chainloader +1 here is what I did to recover: sfdisk -d /dev/hda | sfdisk --force -H255 /dev/hda more infos can be found at the following url: http://lwn.net/Articles/86835/
