Yeah, oralux is pretty great. I am surprised you went 0 for 2 in terms of
it recognizing your sound card immediately. I've probably used it on 20
different kinds of PCs and I'd say it came up crowing 80% or 90% of the time.
As a final warning to anyone who needs to know, Windows
supports long file names so I imagine that by making the tar ball of
the Windows file system, I have probably lost all but the DOS-style
8-character file names. In this particular situation, that is not a
problem, but I sure wouldn't do that to files that still needed to run
on a Windows box. If there is a way to see the long names, I would
like to know for future reference.
You won't lose your long file names via tar. Linux/unix had long file names
long before Windows even existed. I make backups of Windows files all the
time via tar on a shared network drive. I don't think you're going to have
any problem using the files you copied via tar.
