Hello All, There's an Acer TravelMate here whose M$Windows was hit with an outlook macro virus (yes, such is the fate all who use this evil mailer). I need to save the data files and not truncate everything to 8.3 filenames.
I will try for loss less repartioning; install Linux; mount the FAT32 partition, etc.; and hopefully do network backup via PLIP, thus preserve long filenames. I've read on NFS over PLIP but since I'm saving to a windows box, can I substitue Samba for NFS? Has anyone out there even considered this murky solution? Thanks in advance, Erik Abella
