Windows is far too stupid to let you access other OS partitions. It works
the other way though:
Mount your Windows partition in Linux (usually by doing something like
mkdir /mnt/sucking-os && mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/sucking-os) and copy
the file over (cp /mnt/sucking-os/your.tar.gz /usr/local).
