Many thanks to everyone who offered help on this issue.
The way used to I do this was relatively simple... My Linux partitions
are Reiser, my XP partition was NTFS. Linux can read NTFS with no
problems... so on the rare occasion I needed to snag a file from the
XP partition, I can. On the other hand if I happened to be booted to
Windows (err.. something I haven't done in ages) I had a small util
installed there that could read Reiser partitions... so I could copy
from the Linux partitions to the NTFS partitions.
OK, it's one way.. copying from the foreign fs to the local... but it
works.. and no risk of corrupting the foreign fs because you're
accessing in ro mode.
What I did on my notebook, was create a FAT32 partition and move the "My
Documents" folder to it. This way either OS can read & write the files.
Did you create the mount point at the usual location on C: root?
No, Windows drives get mounted under /windows, so this would be mounted
on /windows/d. I also created a link to my home directory, where it
appears as another folder.
