Further to my problem of not being able to automatically mount my windows xp partition and cd to it as a regular user.
from dmesg: NTFS driver 2.1.27 [Flags: R/W MODULE]. NTFS volume version 3.1. NTFS-fs warning (device sda1): load_system_files(): Unsupported volume flags 0x4000 encountered. NTFS-fs warning (device sda1): load_system_files(): Volume has unsupported flags set. Will not be able to remount read-write. Run chkdsk and mount in Windows. I'm not clear on what I need to do. I don't seem to have chkdsk. I tried apt-get install chkdsk but that failed because it could not find the package. "mount in Windows" I don't understand. When I boot into Windows the partition is there, obviously. Forgive me if I'm a bit of a daft newbie. Phill -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
