Hello,

How is it possible to copy the partition of hard drive that have unix on it (it's a scsi hard drive of an Irix (SGI)), under windows xp - what I did till now is to connect the drive to the my pc (windows xp installed) with a scsi adapter and the program partition magic can't recognize the hard drive - it's say it unallocated - I want to copy the partion to a nother hard drive...

Thanks.

you need to use Acronis Disk Suite software, I know it will copy linux partitons, might work for what you are doing.

I know partition magic wont do it tho..
