Question #77254 on Ubuntu changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/77254
Tom proposed the following answer: Hi again I was wondering if there's really any urgent need to fix the Vista side of this because Ubuntu should be able to access all the data and can happily read/write almost any documents or things that are on the Vista side of things - just hunt around in the "Places" menu. There are some specialist distros to help repair Windows but my favourite is Trinity Rescue Kit which runs from a command-line rather than from a nice gui desktop http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=trinity i guess the appropriate tools could be installed and used in ubuntu rather than making trk into a bootable disk you could use as a LiveCd but i would really be using trk because of it's excellent forum support for helping with all this type of thing. Really in Ubuntu we tend to steer clear of Windows as much as possible but some specialist distros are made for exactly that. If you navigate to the home page at DistroWatch you might find search tools to help find these other ones too. If i had to deal with this i would set it aside as something to do later, at my leisure, but would just keep using all the stuff that's over on the Vista side in the meantime. Good luck and regards from Tom :) -- You received this question notification because you are a member of UF Unanswered Posts Team, which is an answer contact for Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
