unmountable HDD partition. HELP!
Hey all, I just downloaded Knoppix to recover whatever files from my HDD after Windows XP crashed on me. Im currently running Knoppix from a CD and am really the n00b at it. Ok, because I own a HP Pavilion PC, my HDD is partitioned. One for Windows and HP stuff, and the other for user files. I can currently access the HP partition just fine, but when i try to open the other partition, (hda2), it gives me the following error msg:
Could not mount device.
The reported error was:
mount: I could not determine the filesystem type, and none was specified.
I got really confused browsing the forums on similar issues. I THINK the filesystem is an NTFS and all I really want to do is to salvage and burn my files off it. Pls reply soon! thanks.
