I put together Windows 7 and Ubuntu 11.04. Sometimes you need to use a couple of files from Windows, when I sit under linuha. Each time you restart the computer and go under Windows, when you need some kind of film or song hemorrhoids. Can I access files of my Windows while sitting under Linux?

    You can access the partition with ntfs, mount.ntfs-3g will help with this

    • It was meant: aptitude install ntfs-3g, after that if you do not want to poke around with the mount command, you can simply reboot, the mounted partitions usually fall into the / media directory. - ArcherGodson
    • In ubuntu ntfs-3g seems to be already embedded. - Int

    Ubuntu you put the second, most likely, when installing it was necessary to put a label to mount the Windows partition (do not format), then it will be mounted automatically (well, of course, and the path where the type will be mounted is / mnt / sda1, / media / windows, etc. ) Now there are two acceptable options: 1. From the sudo mount / dev / terminal, the name of the partition with Windows is most likely sda / mnt / what kind of directory or without it 2. In graphics mode via the disk manager (gparted) or something like, mount the partition ( allow access to it) 3. Ubunt, as a rule (if single-disk) not mind work with ntfs ete, download something from the repository to work with them, as the person wrote you in the first letter

    PS In general, what you find in ubunt, it’s as stupid as a rubber stopper, normal Linux (Mandriva, Alto PCLinux, Fedor) has no such problems (even a profitable pappy)

      if ubunt is installed from windows, then the windows system will not be visible, if you install ubuntu in parallel, then it has full access to the windows file system)

      By the way, Ubuntu is a very pumped system, you do not have to steam with anything, everything is coming out of the box - even the printer and the hp scanner are hooked up without any installation of firewood! UBUNTU-for people!

      • It was for people, until 11.04 was released, and 11.10 behind it. From this point on, for me personally, this is an ordinary Windows for housewives. And in the tenth version in the repositories, some packages were in no hurry to update. - Int

      Open System - Administration - Disk Utility and see if the partition with Windows is visible. If so, see the path to this section, for example, / dev / sdb1. In the terminal consistently perform

      sudo su

      cd / media

      mkdir windows

      gedit / etc / fstab

      and add to the opened file line

      / dev / sdb1 / media / Windows ntfs-3g rw 0 0

      Naturally, there may be / dev / sda1 and something else, depending on the connection of hard drives on the motherboard. This is all for automatic partition mounting at boot. In the general case, you can select "Computer" in the "Transition" menu and mount the disk with handles there, or mount it from a disk utility, but after a while it is very powerful and it is easier to automate this process.
