crash on ext3 access

above post edited a couple of times because the forum system kept playing funny with the UUIDs

Try this,

cmd
mountvol (drive letter: ) /L

I got

mountvol e: /L (e: is my ext3 partition)
\\?\Volume{7b57b5c0-b2f9-11de-b93e-806e6f6e6963}\

(this gave me the partition UUID)

Create a .bat file
mountvol E:\ \\?\Volume{7b57b5c0-b2f9-11de-b93e-806e6f6e6963}\

save the file and the drag it into your start menu startup folder.

partition will now mount on windows startup - only annoyance being a cmd window appearing every time you start windows.

Hope this helps

Thank you Pete this works great! You show me something new. Jerry

Cool, pleased it works
Us dual booters have to tinker a bit sometimes!
