I used to be able to mount my ext2 partitions from Windows.
The past half year I tried reiserfs, which gave me problems, so I'm
back to ext2 again. However, I cannot mount my ext2 partitions from
Windoze anymore.
This is the output of fdisk -l /dev/hda :
Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 784 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 196 1574338+ 6 FAT16
/dev/hda2 197 784 4723110 85 Linux extended
/dev/hda5 197 392 1574338+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda6 393 405 104391 82 Linux swap
/dev/hda7 406 758 2835441 83 Linux
/dev/hda8 759 784 208813+ 83 Linux
It seems that the Mandrake-8.0 Installer (diskdrake) created an extended
partition on hda2. Shouldnt that be hda5 ? I thought hda1-4 could only
be primary partitions. Is there a way to change this without losing my data ?
