What files are you trying to access? If you're trying to access files from the opensolaris partition from windows XP, you can't. Windows XP does not understand the ZFS file system used by opensolaris. If you need to share files between Windows and opensolaris then your best bet is to create a data partition formatted with a filesystem that both operating systems understand. In this case that would be FAT or FAT32. You can then access this data partition on both operating systems and store files that you want to share on that partition. If you need/want to access files on the opensolaris partition that are part of the system (not just documents) then there are potential solutions, but they get pretty complicated.
