[Techtalk] NTFS Linux rescue disk?

[mgmonza at sdf.lonestar.org]

I didn't have an "A" drive before.  Now? It's among the booty this 
excursion into legal piracy got me, in the pile of abandoned parts and 
disks left by our earstwhile techie.  A usable floppy is the next 
thing into the toolbox.  Thank you for that.


It's so weird - the "official" XP disk was useless for just letting me 
read and write to the C drive and the "official" boot diskette would not 
give me that drive, either.  Non-windows stuff gave me full and safe 
access to this expensive proprietary software.


Organizations really do live in a fantasy world.
