hellllppppp! well, i've tried all of the posted suggestions and i don't believe there are any files at /mnt/nt!!! does this mean that they are really gone or is it possible that they just can't be read? the remaining filesystem was ntfs (if that makes a difference)
when starting windoze xp in safe mode with prompt, i "dir" at the c:/ and get an error message. that's probably bad too, yes? anyways, if there are any other suggestions i'm open. i really appreciate your help so far and look forward to hearing more :-) chris ----- Original Message ----- From: Jesse Kline <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thursday, February 27, 2003 6:20 pm Subject: Re: (clug-talk) Mandrake 9.0/WinXP problems > Try running fdisk -l that will give you a list of your partition > table.
