Ext2Fsd is an open source Ext2 file system driver for Windows (NT/2K/XP). "Explorer" your linux ext2 volumes with ease under windows systems.   ================================== Release Notes for Ext2Fsd V0.22b ==================================   Modifications from V0.22a  Bugs Fixed:  1, Deleting and copying files from/to a directory frequently corrupts the directory.    E2fsck will report "directory corrupted". This bug is cuased by Ext2AddEntry.  Modifications from V0.22  Bugs Fixed:  1, Fsck error reports: "inode is in use, but has dtime set." for deleted directories.    This bug caused by non-zero i_links_count of deleted directory inode.     2, When many files (Normally > 255 files, reported by Zhoujingg) are deleted, the dir    entry may cross blocks, which will cause ext2/ext3 driver could not correctly read    the directory entries.   Modifications from V0.21  Bugs Fixed:  1, Mcb part overflows the stack 2, Delay-writing errors: cache lost 3, Bad file type for newly created files  Features Newly Supported:  1, Optimize the Mcb management part and the function of Ext2SaveGroup 2, Big files (> 4G) accessing   Thanks to:  1, AG  for the patch about Ext2Fsr and advices on Ext2Fsd. 2, Zhoujinggao  for the clue about Mcb management. 3, Laurent  for his link (in French). 4, Many Ext2Fsd users. I also say my sorry that I didn't answer some mails from you.   Ext2fsd v0.22 is not strong yet in writing support, I recommend you create a little ext2 partition as a swap between winnt and linux or use bosse's filedisk to create an image file. Please see faq.txt for detail info of mounting an image file as a partition with the help of filedisk.  Notes: I release it just for file system driver development. The driver may crash your system and ruin your data. You should use it with care and use it at your own risk!  Matt  http://ext2fsd.sf.net
