jjmaa 0 Posted August 31, 2005 I installed unbutu on a second drive and now win xp says the drive needs to be formatted. Also when I run unbutu it doen't recognize my c drive which means I can't import or find any files on that drive. Since I am new to linux(about an hour ago) I am sure I am missing something simple I run a p2 with 2 40g hd's and 396 mb ram Share this post Link to post
danleff 0 Posted August 31, 2005 What version of Ubuntu are you running? XP will not see the second hard drive if it is formatted at a Linux partiition, as Windows is unable to see Linux volumes. Also, if Windows XP is on a NTFS filesystem, you probably can't save/write files from Ubuntu to an NTFS volume. generally NTFS read support should be available in the latest version, but safe write support is not perfected yet in most Linux distros.
