cannot mount sda1 but can mount sda2

(1/1)

alan52:
I have tinycore 3.2 installed on a usb key,my hard drive has 2 partitions sda1 for windows operating system and sda2 for windows recovery;I can mount sda2 from the usb key but not sda1 (message NO SUCH DEVICE) Is this a bug?

Juanito:
how is the windows partition formatted - fat, fat32, ntfs?

what does "sudo fdisk -l" give?

alan52:
Device            Boot    start    end             blocks            id              system
/dev/sda1         *          1     18575        149203656       7              HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda2               18577   19457         7076632           c            Win95 FAT32 (LBA)

Juanito:
If you load the filesystems-2.6.33.3-tinycore extension, you should have read access to the ntfs partition

SvOlli:
If you also want to write on this partition you'll need the ntfs-3g package. I've also done a remaster of TCL that already includes the ntfs-3g driver. Take a look at the remix / remaster section.
