Help mounting a hard drive in Knoppix 3.7
Hi guys,
Right off the bat i'm gonna say that i'm a total linux noob. this is the second time i've seen the interface... anyway that being said, here is my issue.
I have a user that needs to get data off a hard drive. This hard drive won't mount in windows xp. Last time this happened one of my co workers at the helpdesk booted into knoppix 3.7 off a CD and mounter the internal HD and the HD that was connected via USB to the computer, and transfered the data.. no problem there. Unfortunatley he left the company to pursue a degree, and i do not remember the commands he used to properly mount the drives. so i figured i'd ask here for any assistance.
thanks for any input.
