| if you search this forum you should find an old thread where i had a link to a program that can mount EXT2 and 3 partitions. it can't fully mount EXT3 it mounts it as EXT2 so you lose journalling but it works read/write. if you just want to run linux inside of windows qemu works well. edit: as i recall i also found a program that worked for OSX as well, never tested it myself but macdude said it worked. i'll see if i can find my old thread. edit2: linkage my friends. i don't know if you can still get the program but if not contact me and i should be able to send you an old version. http://tech-forums.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=75108

| I installed it from http://www.fs-driver.org/download.html and it works fine. I already new about another EXT2IFS driver: http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/ext2ifs.htm but I like the other one more. Can I start/boot my linux partition using qemu? |

| not that i know of unfortunately. qemu can only run linux within windows. but i'm pretty sure the virtualisation is completely conrtained, in that the only filesystems you can access are the virtual filesystem created by qemu and any iso's you mount when you start qemu

| Super Techie | The best option would be VMware, which as previously mentioned can boot linux from a physical drive there are versions of linux which are fat32 friendly so in theory they could be installed on the same partition as a windows installation about they both could not be booted simulatniously, I believe it has something to do with each OS wanting to lock the hardware for dedicated use
