Hi All,
I am trying to recover my crashed windows files onto an external hard drive after booting through knoppix. Although it did detect my external drive it is in read only mode and any data I paste onto the external drive is not copied. The error it gives me is "cp: cannot create regular file '/mnt/sdb1/.....' : Read only file System'"
My hard drive is formatted with ntfs and external disk is formatted with fat32
Any idea how I should make my external hard drive writable?
Any help is really appreciated!
Thanks
Ramya
