actually, no. read it again. he dualboots. the data is on the linux partition and he wants to access it when booted into windows on the same box. another possibility here is, run linux all the time, and run windows under win4lin or vmware. i like win4lin. vmware is too expensive and my computers aren't fast enough (and my boss already bought win4lin for me :). the only reason to dualboot would be to play games, since win4lin doesn't do directx or directsound. can't afford to upgrade to the new windows media player either, since that uses direct* and so it won't work on win4lin :). fortunately xmms and xine are good enough and i don't use (heck, i don't even know about) the more esoteric features of WMP. if he were to use win4lin or vmware, then he'd have the benefit of both OSes without the hassle of rebooting. tiger -- Gerald Timothy Quimpo gquimpo*hotmail.com tiger*sni*ph http://bopolissimus.sni.ph Public Key: "gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 672F4C78" The first half of our lives is ruined by our parents, and the second half by our children.
