Greetings all,

For various reasons, I'm trying to access an EXT3 partition from Windows. I
know of several ways, the most notable of which being the ext2 IFS
(Link<http://www.diskinternals.com/linux-reader/>),
but the IFS and most other solutions don't seem to work too well on Windows
7. Running the remaining options under 64-bit Win only seems to make things
worse.
I had thought that by working with Cygwin to gain a Unix-alike environment
would be able to solve this, but alas it relies on Windows for nearly all
of its filesystem needs - and since Windows cannot by default understand
EXT, neither can Cygwin.
So I'm in search of a means of accessing the partition that will work for a
change. Does anyone know of such a way, or should I start looking at other
means of access instead?

Thanks either way.
