before you bust my balls, i feel like this is the appropriate section to ask in seeing as i doubt there is a way to do this without resorting to programming. If there is a way, i'm still curious as to how i could do this with my own code anyway.
the question is, is there a way to retrieve files from a linux partition while running windows, but without having to run linux on top of windows?
there's nothing i hate more than booting into windows from linux and then realizing i left my files behind.
i realize that writing such program involves coding for about 4 different of filesystems (or at least 2 if i plan to only use FAT32 and ext2.), but it's something i can do over time and gives me a challenge. it beats the hell out of:
