Hi I'm hoping someone can help me with my frustrating problem... I have a laptop, and something installed under windows 98 has now (twice) overwritten the initial part of my Linux filesystem which exists in an extended partition. How can I prevent this (other than by deinstalling windows! - my wife needs to use our laptop occasionally) Is there a free (GPL'd) or cheap piece of windows 98 software that cen prevent disk writes to any partition other than /dev/hda1 ? I havent managed to identify what piece of software is the culprit yet...
Yours Cormac
