with ubuntu it should all ready let u do that but if it doesnt here you go. The instructions to follow in Ubuntu are as follows: 1. Open a Terminal window. From the menus at the top of the screen, choose Applications | Accessories | Terminal 2. Enter the following inside the Terminal window to create a folder which maps to your Windows hard drive. Be careful to ensure that you replace the reference to /dev/hda1 below with the device name of your Windows hard drive. I used the GNOME Partition Manager to find out the device name. You will also need to replace the reference to ntfs if your Windows hard drive uses another file system. cd /mnt sudo mk.dir windrive (remove the dot between mk and dir – I had to enter that here to get round a mod_security rule whilst creating this post!) sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/windrive -o “umask=022″ ls windrive 3. You should now a list of files from your Windows hard drive in the Terminal window. If you want a more graphical view of the files then do the following: 4. From the menus at the top of the Ubuntu screen Select Places | Computer 5. Double-click on the Filesystem icon 6. Double-click on the mnt folder we created earlier 7. You should now see a folder called windrive with all your Windows files inside
