How do you mount or access an XP drive in Kubuntu?

[jacatone]

I have Kubuntu and WinXP set up as a dual boot. I'd like to access some files in XP. How do I do that? Thanks.

Re: How do you mount or access an XP drive in Kubuntu?

First open text editor. I use kate.
sudo kate /etc/fstab

add line,

/dev/hda1 /media/winxp ntfs ro,auto,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0


make sure hda1 is the actual drive. on some machines like dell the windows drive is hda2.
save

change ro to rw if you want the partition writable.

then open konqueror and navigate to /media and it should be there.
If it isn't then do:
mount /dev/hda1
