A recommendation please....

[johnchain]

Greetings....from linux!

Running Fedora Core 5 right now. Can you guys recommend me a good program for viewing other partitions on the hard disk and the files in them?

What is wrong with Nautilus? If you want a simple fast one there is Midnight Commander (MC).

[johnchain]

Thank you, I most definitely will try.

Where are the other hard drives? Under which folders...everything I seem to look for doesn't lead there.

Please post the contents of this file: /etc/fstab

[johnchain]

I  basically think I'm blind here....

Code: [Select]

/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /                       ext3    defaults        1 1
LABEL=/boot             /boot                   ext3    defaults        1 2
devpts                  /dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620  0 0
tmpfs                   /dev/shm                tmpfs   defaults        0 0
proc                    /proc                   proc    defaults        0 0
sysfs                   /sys                    sysfs   defaults        0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap                    swap    defaults        0 0

I'm trying to get to the equivalent of Microsoft's "Drive C:" or basically the first partition on my hard drive.

Pants.  You're using the Logical Volume Manager.  I have no experience of that.  How many partitions are there on this hard drive?  (You can use cfdisk to provide partition information.)

Any ideas, Mark?

[johnchain]

Well....I had my primary partition for windows when I got the computer, then i made two more....the linux partition and the swap partition. That's all I know of.

[johnchain]

Nevermind, got it to work.....used ntfsmount (since Fedora doesn't support ntfs) and I mounted it and it all came to me......sorry I didn't google in the first place, I thought the answser would be simpler.

Support for NTFS partitions for Linux is currently at the beta stage, so be careful.
