Hi all.

Excuse the off topic post, but I thought there may be an individual or
2 here who have dual boot systems, and can access their ext3
partitions under the other popular os. Normally, a vfat/fat32
partition is fine for the purpose of exchanging files between
gnu/linux and windows, but using fat32 is impossible when dealing with files
larger then 4gb. The 2 tools I've found that can access ext2/3 under
windows are EXT2IFS
<http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/ext2ifs.htm/>, and LTOOLS
<http://www.it.fht-esslingen.de/~zimmerma/software/ltools.html/>.
Ltools is command-line-based from a dos box, and I'm looking for
something that will read/write ext3 partitions like any other drive in
windows explorer. Ext2ifs isn't perfect either, since it can access
ext2/3 in read-only mode.

So, does anyone know of anything else that can mount ext3 partitions
read/write, and make them show up like any other drive in windows
explorer? As always, thanks in advance, and no flames please for
mentioning windows, since I did put "ot" in the subject.

Greg
