|

| 35 | <sect2 id="AEN13"><title>3.4.1. Windows ME/95/98</title>
|
|---|
| 36 | <para>Verify that the partition is listed in /etc/fstab and is
|
|---|
| 37 | mounted (e.g. /dev/hda1). Mondo will take care of everything else.
|
|---|
| 38 | The files will be archived just like all other files in the live
|
|---|
| 39 | file system. At restore-time, Mondo will take care of the boot
|
|---|
| 40 | sector of /dev/hda1 prior to the restore.</para>
|
|---|
| 41 | <para>Note: if Windows ME/95/98 is not located on /dev/hda1 or
|
|---|
| 42 | /dev/sda1, then Mondo will not take care of the boot sector of
|
|---|
| 43 | /dev/hda1. The user will have to boot from a DOS floppy and run SYS
|
|---|
| 44 | C: to correct the Windows boot sector.</para>
|
|---|
| 45 | </sect2><sect2 id="AEN13"><title>3.4.2. Windows NT4/2K/XP</title>
|
|---|
| 46 | <para>Windows NT4/2K/XP typically use the NTFS file system, not
|
|---|
| 47 | VFAT.. The user should use '-x /dev/hda1' (or whichever device the
|
|---|
| 48 | Windows partition resides). Mondo will treat the partition as a
|
|---|
| 49 | biggiefile. Mondo will also add an entry to the mountlist to
|
|---|
| 50 | reflect the size and type of the partition. The user may not edit
|
|---|
| 51 | that partition's size at restore-time (for obvious reasons).</para>
|
|---|
| 52 | <para>Please bear in mind that Mondo was written for Linux users.
|
|---|
| 53 | If Mondo does not backup or restore your Windows system well, you
|
|---|
| 54 | might want to consider paying for 1-to-1 technical support.
|
|---|
| 55 | Ironically, the only people to pay for 1-to-1 technical support
|
|---|
| 56 | have been Linux users, whereas Windows users want a free ride. That
|
|---|
| 57 | is one reason why the Linux community gives me warm fuzzies.</para>
