Figured out to use fdisk and copy down the partitions. My printer is a sort of WinPrinter, a Xerox personal laser. It is rather picky about how it can print; can't print from Opera directly, but if I transfer what I want to print to word processor can print from there.
Plan to see if I can load the printer driver into an extension of Wine. If not will have to drop files to print to a shared area and print from the other os. Got the printer cheap, and it otherwise works well. Had I known to wait a couple of months I could have gotten a Lexmark one even cheaper that probably would have worked under Linux. But my old Epson was dead and needing decent burial. When I get around to some networking I'll be able to print through another box anyway. Next adventure, after mounting other partitions, see if Red Hat 7.3 recognized a parallel port tape drive for backup (Tecmar/Iomega DittoMax) If so, fine, if not, will have to burn backup CDs. Maybe it's appropriate that the most useful book last night was "Linux! I Didn't Know You Could Do That...." with a monkey and banana on the cover. Has a CD with some DOS tools for access to Linux partitions from other os. Will check Web for newer versions.
