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:
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...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'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.

Awesome. Thanks for the help. Hopefully this will help others with similar problems.
After a crud load of attempts at getting this thing to work right, I'm still a failure... NEED help...
I've used the "knoppix floppyconfig" to run the raid drivers from my floppy and I'm not noticing any errors in the boot proccess. All that happens though is that I have the following under my devices:
Everything works as I would expect except when I click on the "0" HD I get:CD-ROM (cdrom) /mnt/auto/cdrom
CD-ROM (scd0) /cdrom
Floppy
Hard Disc /mnt/auto
Hard Disc 0
Hard Disc (cloop) /KNOPPIX
Hard Disc (root) /
Hard Disc (Sys) /sys
(DISCLAIMER: I'm a Linux noob and I'm not sure if that's what should be happening or not)mount: can't find /0 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
Please check that the disk is entered correctly.
SOOOOoooo, I decided that maybe I still need to captivate the NTFS partition. When I run Captive I still get the same error that I was getting in the first post under this topic. I've tried following the onscreen instructions from the Captive program but the drive doesn't mount properly and it's even listed under the CD-ROM section rather than the Hard Disc section.
This is my fstab if it helps:
I would just partition my drive out but I'm worried that if I can't get it to work this way, trying that may cause me to lose all my data./proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/sys /sys sysfs noauto 0 0
/dev/pts /dev/pts devpts mode=0622 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/auto/floppy auto user,noauto,exec,umask=000 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/auto/cdrom auto user,noauto,exec,ro 0 0
# Added by KNOPPIX
noauto,users,exec 0 0
Please Help!!!
Completely in the same boat here.
Would be a MASSIVE boost to the useability of Linux for me. So much so I'd pretty much stop using Windows all-together!
