Assuming you're accessing everything "Windows" via /mnt/win_c - you can't edit ANYTHING at all? What version of Windows were you running? Because if you were running anything NT based with NTFS, you're not going to be able to - but if you're running under FAT or VFAT, you can edit/save/modify anything - just that the executable bit is set on all files...but that's generally not a hassle... -- Mon Dec 9 07:15:01 EST 2002 7:15am up 11:00, 5 users, load average: 0.28, 0.23, 0.20 .o0 linux user:267497 0o. -------------------------------- | __ __ | kühn media australia | / \ /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | .\__/ || | | | | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kühn | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | |'. `\ | | | icq: 5483808 | ;"""/ / | | | | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU -------------------------------- Coralament*Best Grötens*Liebe Grüße*Best Regards*Elkorajn Salutojn "That's the whole problem with science.
