The point of Linux Live CD's is that you can use them on any PC without having to install it. It runs from CD-rom/RAM. That makes it perfect for rescue operations.


who asked that?

woekele, stop posting for the post count  :-D

(mehehe, one more for me!)

I posted it because I got the impression that Ghozt didnt know, cause of "well my Linux boot up on on a whole different box, not as a dual boot so this PC cannot read from the other's hard drive. And cant swap the drive over to this PC due to it being a raid 0 array.  I have tired a few different ntfs bootloaders/disks with no luck also.".

No, he doesnt. He does ask for help fixing his drives etc.. so I told him to use a live cd to see if he could do something useful from there. He then replied with what I quoted in my previous post (the thing about having Linux installed on a different box), which gave me the impression he didnt know the principle of the live cd, which is why I explained it.

Whats your problem with me man? First you come in and try to tell me NTFS writing doesnt work in Linux (which it does) and then you start telling me Im only posting for postcount (which Im not), just cause you didnt read/understand properly.

Let's drop the bitching and not take this off-topic, ghozt has a problem, which needs to be fixed.

Anyways I got one HD restored By trial and error last night took only the whole night but I got the 60GB to partition out at 40GB and 20GB and Installed windows, but it will Blue Screen if i boot up with my Raid 0 slaved.. So off to the pc store for some new IDE ribbons.

Dude, I got liveCDs coming out my arse, PM address, I'll send a few different versions... I just used Knoppix to fix a HD at work that was failing on me.

BTW, how's the little poltergeist doing? :-D

well I finally got the oher drives to hold partitions so I installed windows xp to one and then booted up with a regular ide install and the raid 0 slaved. Then I put the xp cd in and booted up the recovery console and it listed the 2 installs but I can oly access the one fresh install systemroot correctly the raid 0 systemroot when I choose it, I type dir and it says directory stucture is unreadable or something of that nature.  So Im ready to just give up and Raid 0+1 and install windows liek I should have done in the 1st place unless anyone still thinks the data on the raid 0 is saveable.

I really appreciate those of you staying on the subject and trying to help out.

Would the checkdisk /r command fix the unreadable directory structure? It could also actually make it worse prolly, kinda risky.
