Hi. I am trying to mount an ext3 partition in windows.
I have downloaded and installed the drivers which claimed to be successful and then I try and mount /dev/sda6 by:
Code:
mount 1 6 z:

which too says it has been successful. I then go to my computer and there is a new drive there which has no title and has a question mark on it's icon. If I try open it there is an error saying
Quote:
Z:\ is not accessible.

This folder was moved or removed.


Is there something I am missing here to get it going?
Cheers

Have you rebooted since installing the driver? That might be necessary.

It is possible. Reiser partitions and others aren't.
