I've RH Linux 7.2 and Win 98 on the same hard disk. Is there a way I can access windows files from linux and vice versa? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

SolutionHave a look at the mount command. You need to specify the options as per the type of filesystem on win98 and the partition its loaded on
Once you have done this , add the entry to /etc/fstab to mount upon boot
man mount
If you have the documentation its on there

Re: access
/dev/hdXX /mount_point vfat defaults 1 2
where /dev/hdXX is the Windows98 partition, and /mount_point is whatever point you're mounting the Windows partition on.
Good luck,
Tom

Re: access
easiest way first is to do this.
mount /dev/
the filesystem type will be autodetected and it will be mounted.
if not, check out what type of file system you are using for your windows partition. check if it appears in /proc/filesystems. if not, then you need to recompile your kernel to include support for that file system. and then mount.

Re: access
The kernel must support the smbfs filesystem.
