Hi Gurus, I have a dual boot system with Fedora 7 on one drive and Fedora 8 on another. I'd like the Fedora 8 system to access the data on the Fedora 7 system. Fedora 8 sees 7 as sdc. If I enter: $ sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sdc1 /mnt/test $ ls /mnt/test config-2.6.21-1.3194.fc7 initrd-2.6.21-1.3194.fc7.img System.map-2.6.21-1.3194.fc7 vmlinuz-2.6.22.9-91.fc7 config-2.6.22.9-91.fc7 initrd-2.6.22.9-91.fc7.img System.map-2.6.22.9-91.fc7 grub lost+found vmlinuz-2.6.21-1.3194.fc7 but I can't access the data on the filesystem from there. If I enter: $ sudo umount /mnt/test $ sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sdc2 /mnt/test I get: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc2, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so Is it possible to access the data on the F7 system from booted F8? If so, how?
