Seems you haven't used "mount" before. You simply mount the partition /dev/sdb1 on some directory. For example. $ su - Password: # mkdir /mnt/olddisk # mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/olddisk Then you can access your files in /mnt/olddisk. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
