Re: No hda

Followed your instructions, found it was hda1, then followed Rotariu's instructions, and I got my Win98 hard drive files.  I opened it, and all was there.  Rebooted, and now it is gone.  How do I keep it permanent?

Do

cat /proc/partitions 

and look at the number of blocks: hda is the whole drive, hda1 the first
partition.
