  • Accessing Linux Data Partitions from Windows
    ACCESSING LINUX DATA PARTITIONS FROM WINDOWS In a dual boot Windows-Linux computer, it is comparatively easier to view the Windows partitions from Linux, than the other way round, i.e., viewing Linux partitions from Windows. In this article, the author presents a way around this challenge. Today, in the world of computers, dual booting or running both Windows and Linux on the same system, is fairly common. In which case, users often want to transfer files/data between the two operating systems. Linux has native support for Windows file systems (NTFS and FAT), which means that you can access Windows partitions from Linux. But, this is not the case with Windows. To access Linux partitions from Windows, you need third-party software, specifically designed for this purpose. Basic differences between Windows and Linux file systems The file systems used in Windows and Linux are completely different in many ways from how the disks and devices are enumerated to the level of data security provided by them. The file systems used in Windows are FAT (FAT12, FAT16 and FAT32) and NTFS this last var systems. Linux supports a greater number of file systems like Ext2, Ext3, Ext4, XFS, JFS, etc. The predominant file system used in Linux is Ext3. On Windows, a disk is divided into partitions and exposed to the user through a drive letter. Even the CD-ROM and removable media get a drive letter. Linux doesn t use drive letters. On Linux, everything is under the root directory (/). Linux treats all the devices as files. All devices like disks and CD-ROMs connected to Linux will be mounted to the root directory or to any other directory under the root like /dev/sda and /dev/cdrom, respectively.

  • Playing Back GV-IP Device Recordings on a Windows-Based Computer
    Playing Back GV-IP Device Recordings on a Windows-Based Computer Article ID: GV3-13-12-16-c Release Date: 12/16/2013 Applied to GV-IPCam H.264, GV-Video Server, GV-Compact DVR Ext2Fsd V0.51 Summary The videos on GV-IP devices are recorded in the Linux format. To play back recordings from these devices on a Windows system, we need to first enable the computer to recognize Linux files. This technical notice brings you through the steps of installing the Ext2Fsd program, an ext2 file system driver for Windows, and accessing GV-IP devices’ recordings on a Windows-based computer. The Ext2Fsd program works on Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, 7, 8 and Server 2012 (32-bit and 64-bit). Note: Because of the compatibility issue, for firmware versions later than the versions below, it is required to use Ext2Fsd program to read the Linux-format files on Windows. GV-IPCam H.264 firmware V2.07 or later GV-Video Server • GV-VS04A: firmware V1.06 or later • GV-VS04H: firmware V1.08 or later • GV-VS11: firmware V1.03 or later • GV-VS12: firmware V1.07 or later • GV-VS14: firmware V1.01 or later GV-Compact DVR • GV-Compact DVR V2 4CH: firmware V1.10 or later • GV-Compact DVR V3 4CH: firmware V1.04 or later • GV-Compact DVR V3 8CH: firmware V1.02 or later 1 Instructions 1. Download and install the latest Ext2Fsd from this website. http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsd/files/Ext2fsd/0.51/Ext2Fsd-0.51.exe/download Note: If you are using Windows 8 or Windows Server 2012, change its compatibility before installing the Ext2Fsd program: A.

  • An Overview of File Systems V1.1
    An Overview of File Systems v1.1 By Robert Spotswood What follows is a cursory summary of the more common Linux and Windows file systems you could put on one of your partitions. The list is far from complete on the Linux side. File systems exist to allow you to store, retrieve, and manipulate data. There are two basic types of file systems, journaling and non-journaling. Journaling file systems add an extra few steps to every write. Before writing/changing any data to the hard drive, the file system driver writes to a journal what it is going to do, then does the write, then marks the journal entry as done (or erases it). All this extra writing means that journaling file systems© writes are generally slower than an equivalent non-journaling file systems©. But, what you get for slower writes is seen most dramatically when there is a sudden, unexpected, reboot. In order to ensure the metadata (definition below) for a partition is at least consistent, a non-journaling file system must do a disk check over the entire partition(s). This can take minutes to hours, and the larger the partition, the longer it will take. A journaling file system, on the other hand, just looks at the journal, and replays any transactions that were not complete. This process usually takes only seconds no matter how large the partition. This also dramatically reduces, but does not eliminate, the chance of file corruption and data loss compared to non-journaling file systems. Some types of journaling only keep a journal of the metadata.
