My media center crashed for god knows what reason and I'm trying to get back some files on the HD with Fedora 10 Live.
intel core 2 duo @1.86Ghz
2005 windows XP media center
250 GB SATA HD
2 GB RAM
I have 2 partitions, 1 recovery(D:\) and the other one for everyday beating(C:\).
In Fedora, the partition drive mounts whereas the general partition, where windows is, does not and that's where my files are.
I tried forcing the mount but I was unsuccessful at that. device in question is /sda1.
mount -t ntfs-3g/dev/sda1/media/disk -o force didn't do much.
Fedora indicates an unclean shutdown(0,1) and now, even if I'm working with Fedora, the mount is marked to be in use by WINDOWS:mad: . The file system is NTFS.
I got pissed off and yanked the HD out. Booted it with my other pc, SATA to USB, both partitions show, D:\ is accessible and C:\ is NOT, drive corrupt or unreadable.
Is there a more violent method to force mount C: / sda1 in Fedora? |

| Nope. That is the only other way that I know of, but I do notice the command is structured a bit wrong. Not sure how much that effects it, but you should put the -o force before the locations etc. |

the structure is good, all it needs is some spaces that I missed.
I just figured it out, I needed to make a mount for windows specifically
sudo mkdir /media/windows
sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/data -o force
all it needed was an assigned mount.....was that easy ....geezus |
