drivers - Mount an ext3 partition in Windows, inside a Dynamic Disk?


I have a disk which has two partitions, one NTFS and one ext3. I've converted it to a dynamic disk inside Windows. It still can be read fine when booted under Linux (thanks to LDM support in the Linux kernel), however when booted under Windows, the ext2/ext3 driver ext2ifs no longer works. It cannot see the partitions inside the dynamic disk.


Is there a way to make ext2ifs work? If not, are there any other ext2/ext3 drivers compatible with Windows that I can try?



Answer



ext2ifs doesn't support inodes larger than 128.


Though I've never tried it, ext2fsd looks stable enough as far as people say.
