Hi,
Sorry if this in the wrong forum, if so kindly redirect me as to where I can ask this.
I installed Feisty from a Live CD and downloaded and used the ntfs-3g driver to access my Windows drives. Everything is fine on the Kubuntu side, but now XP refuses to boot! I get a bluescreen message that says something like I need to remove any additional drives that have been added or run CHKDSK /F (no drives have been added)
I have backups of most stuff of course, but I'd still like to be able to boot back into XP. Is there a way to salvage the existing XP installation, or am I doomed to a reinstall?
Also, if I do this again, what should I do to avoid this problem?
If it helps, the line I added to fstab was:
/dev/hdb1 /media/c ntfs defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0 1
Thanks,
Roy
