I am trying to mount a Hibernated Windows Partition from iLinux and iLinux IRP for data recovery but i get errors. Is there a way to bypass that?
Yes there is but it involves use of Terminal Command Line.
In the next Live Update of iLinux OS we plan to include an Application for that!
SOLUTION:
1.
If you use iLinux OS IRP open Application Finder > Root Terminal.
If you use iLinux OS open Application Finder > Terminal and Log In as root using the following instructions:
TYPE su root AND THEN PRESS ENTER/RETURN.
Type root Password (Default is 1234) AND THEN PRESS ENTER/RETURN.
2.
Open Application Finder > Disk Utility.
Select the Windows Hard Disk.
Select the Hibernated Windows Partition and check it's Partition ID, for example /dev/sda1
3.
Return to Terminal.
TYPE ls /media AND THEN PRESS ENTER/RETURN.
TYPE sudo mkdir /media/windows AND THEN PRESS ENTER/RETURN.
Remember the Partition ID from Step 2 and TYPE mount -t ntfs-3g -o ro /dev/sda1 /media/windows AND THEN PRESS ENTER/RETURN.
If you use iLinux OS IRP TYPE pcmanfm /media/windows AND THEN PRESS ENTER/RETURN.
If you use iLinux OS TYPE caja /media/windows. AND THEN PRESS ENTER/RETURN.
4.
Now you will be able to see the Hibernated Windows Partition.
That did the trick! Thank you very much! I look forward for the App, it will be a huuuge help!!!!
Any news on that App? :-) I see you are updating iLinux constantly but you forgot this App :-(
We didn't forget it!
But Hibernated Windows Partitions do not always have the same behaviour.
When it will be ready we will release it!
Rest assured. ;-)
