I have a NAS device which uses linux so had formatted it in ext3 before putting all my files on it. a lot of DVD and CD rips so its a lot of data.
Now the actual device has stopped working and i went to get my files off it rather than re-ripping everything.
So i plugged in the hard drive into another PC.
Windows can't read it, i tried a program called Diskinternals Linux Reader, but it couldn't get into the directories i wanted, just the root directory and asked me to extract. I can't extract all the files to just one drive because its bigger than any other single drive I have.
Plus I've never used it before so am asking here if its any good or are there better alternatives?
I tried using a live linux CD (SLAX) and saw all the files on the hard drive, but my external USB hard drives are all NTFS and i couldn't get it to write to them
Is there a way for Linux write to NTFS?
Finally I couldn't get the network to work with the SLAX CD, as my final option was transferring it over a network.
Do the live CD's have network drivers?
