Ok so its been a few years since I have spent much time in the land of *Nix. So here is my problem.
I'm running knoppix I forget distro # live from cd but I need to access C:\sp\i386 so I can pull Windows XP SP2 off my NTFS partition for the drivers I need to run my wireless card. There is a program called Captive Install Acquire now it will do what I need it to however it locks up every time I tell it to search the drive. Now I know the path to the drive which would be /dev/hdc1#libntfs:/ but getting it to access past that point isn't working. Also being its a live cd I just can't pop XP pro into drive and pull off SP2 from the cd.
Now I could partition the hd and run a dual boot but was not trying to do that. So if someone out there could point me in the right direction I would be truly thankful.
Thanks in advance,
