NTFS read access has been available in the Linux kernel for quite some time. Most distributions have this enabled right out of the box. If your distribution does not have this functionality you can either compile the ntfs module if you have the kernel source or you can download an ntfs utility package if your distribution has one. ----- Original message ----- From: "Raymond Norton" <admin at lctn.org> To: tclug-list at mn-linux.org Date: Wed, 18 Jan 2006 07:47:02 -0600 (CST) Subject: [tclug-list] is there any hope? Glad it's no me, but I have a school I work with that had a server go down. (no back ups). It was a windows 2000 server with mirrored drives. One drive has turned out to be toast, and the other shows that it is an ntfs simple volume. Is there any way to mount this in Linux to see if we can recover data? If not, is there a good company that can retrieve data in this situation?
