I wanted to rescue some files from a broken Win2000 install with grml. The data to rescue were stored on a striped partition on a dynamic disk (Windows' equivalent to a software raid0).
Running on fakeraid? [ http://linux-ata.org/faq-sata-raid.html ]
No. dynamic disk is the equivillant on the windows side to the software raid, which you assemble with mdadm. Fakeraid is done by the driver itself, and dynamic disk is done by windows itself. Yes, windows has such things to, oh and you can also "mount" disks to some directorys...
You can get the software which is needed to access such a dynmic disc from http://www.linux-ntfs.org/cvs/vc/dynamic-disk/ But i dont know how good it works.

Does anyone know a way to access these files from grml? Or is it impossible to do this from Linux and I have to include a BartPE disk in my rescue disk set as well?
Try the link above and build it on you're own. Just do an ,---- | cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.linux-ntfs.org:/cvs/linux-ntfs login `---- and
,---- | cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.linux-ntfs.org:/cvs/linux-ntfs co -P dynamic-disk `----
I've just build a .deb for this package, you can get it from http://schu.la/grml/dynamic-disk_0.8-1_i386.deb Note: I didnt test it, because i dont have any windows partitions right here. Hope that helps someone
