Re: [LINUX_Newbies] Linux Hard Drive not recognized in XP

 


I booted the Linux Mint 18.1 Install DVD. It will read XP, and copy from Linux to XP, but it won't copy from XP to Linux. Any ideas how to overcome this obstacle?

Wow, never thought of that! I have WaryPuppy 5.3 as well as Linux Mint 18.1 in 32 and 64 bit, all bootable. A very quick solution to the problem! Thank you!

Why not use a Linux live boot disk like Puppy that can mount and read the WinXP hard disk and Linux USB disk? That's how I do it...

I'm thinking this might be an NTFS issue. When I pull my bootable Linux 18.3 drive and connect it to my XP machine as a USB drive, it is invisible. I connected it when the XP machine was already booted. Should I  be connecting it before boot? How do I get the XP desktop to recognize the Linux hard drive? Just need to transfer some files. Thanks
