Press F5 to bring up an xterm. You will need to find your Windows XP partition. Type "fdisk /dev/hda" and look for the partition labelled "HPFS/NTFS". (If you don't see it or it doesn't work, you can also try "fdisk /dev/sda" if you have certain SATA controllers.) Once you find your NTFS partition, for example "/dev/hda1", type "mount /dev/hda1 /mnt". Now the files on your Windows XP partition are available at "/mnt". Be sure to shut down your machine cleanly after this and/or type "umount /mnt" to cleanly unmount your Windows partition. Let me know if you have any more questions. -John Wed, 29 Nov 2006 10:04:19 -0800 http://www.moka5.com/node/398 After making the bare metal drive I am unable to see it on Windows XP to copy VMX files to it. If I boot into the drive the only way that I seem to be able to import is via a URL. Is using a URL the only way to get a VMX/VMDK onto the bare metal drive? Mon, 27 Nov 2006 09:01:46 -0800
