Hi,
My sister's XP laptop had a hard drive failure during a defrag operation. She would like to be able to back up her data before attempting to reformat this hard drive.
Since nobody I asked could tell me how to slave a laptop hard drive, I suggested she try Knoppix. When that didn't work for her, I downloaded Knoppix 4.0 and tried to read my own NTFS hard drive. Knoppix recognized the drive as /hda/dell, but I was not able to find any files. Do I need to add some sort of NTFS driver? Is there a configuration screen somewhere?
Thanks,
Greg
