On Nov 18 redhatdude@xxxxxxxxxxxxx did spake thusly:
Hi,
I have a PC that doesn't start because the HD is completely full. The user
filled up the recycle bin and never emptied it. I need to be able to delete
all the junk in the recycle bin so WindowsXP can start and I don't have to
reformat the HD and reinstall everything. I only have macs and linux machines
to do this. I put the HD in a firewire enclosure and mounted in both macs and
linux boxes and it always mounts as a read only volume. Therefore, it lets me
see the content of the disk but it doesn't let me delete anything. Can
someone tell me how I can get to delete files in this NTFS volume using FC6?
Thanks,
EJ
Put the disk back in the machine. Boot using the XP install disk. Choose
to repair using the Recovery Console...?
Surely far less hassle...
