Dear friends: This should be a pretty simple question. I think I know the answer but would appreciate an expert's confirmation: I have a dual-boot LM 8.0/Win2000Pro system. My Win2000Pro uses the NTFS File System. That means, of course, that Linux can READ NTFS files on my Win2000 partition but NOT write to them. Unfortunately, I forgot this fact when I decided to copy a bunch of files as a backup from Linux to Win2000. I used Konqueror, my File Manager, to copy these files from their Linux directories to the /mnt/windows partition. Konqueror proceeded to "copy" them. But when I went to /mnt/windows, the Linux directory that I copies and its files were, obviously, not there since Linux cannot write to /mnt.windows. My question: What happened to this directory and files? Since they could not be written to the /mnt/windows partition, did they just vanish into cyberspace thin air? Or was the whole operation essentially cancelled by Konqueror? Just wondering. Thanks so much for your help.
