I've been searching the forums for just about an hour now and I'm hoping the conclusion that I've come to is wrong. Does ANYBODY know ANYTHING about properly mounting raided drives when booting from Knoppix (Live-CD)?
I'd rather not install Linux to my drive if I can't even get the CD-Boot version to work properly at detecting my NTFS drives. I try using Captive but, after downloading the proper service pack from Microsoft, it says:
All needed modules were found in their best preferred versions.
Despite drivers were found no NTFS disk partitions were found on your computer. You still can mount read/write NTFS partitions by using filesystem type 'captive-ntfs' such as:
mkdir /mnt/captive-LABEL_C
mount -t captive-ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/captive-LABEL_C
I know my file structure is ntfs; I set it up. I've tried to manually perform the suggested steps above and it mounts, but I can't do anything to it and it's completely empty.... Don't think it's mounting properly in that case...
I've even tried to mount the drive as a vfat or msdos (just in case my memory's too bad from too much pot) to no avail. In fact, I've gone through most of the file configs with no luck.
Is anybody going to be able to help me on this problem? If I sound frustrated, I am... This is extremely irritating and I hate asking for help.
