Well as for data recovery tools I don't know. As for *nix filesystems from XP all I know is ext2/3 using the EXT2IFS driver found at <a href="http://www.fs-driver.org/">http://www.fs-driver.org/</a> Sinclair <div>On 12/07/06, Marcus <<a href="mailto:lists@wordit.com">lists@wordit.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Wednesday, July 12, 2006, 10:13:07 AM, you wrote: O.> EXT2 partition for combined /home and My Documents I discovered a possible advantage to ext2 (ext3?), not only on laptops. There is a free data recovery tool called R-Linux. The 1.0 Linux version is free, whereas the Windows version costs money. Are there (cost) free tools to recover Reiserfs? "Testdisk" is a good recovery tool, but I cannot remember which FS it supports. You can read ext2/3 from Windows. Are there drivers for other FS?
