I had a failed Harddrive, windows won't see it. <br />
<br />
So i Tried Knoppix boot disk, I can see all the data on the failed drive. <br />
<br />
So I plugged in a backup drive mounted it and tried to change the read/write permissions, fails saying maybe been used my another system process. I read up that knoppix doesn't like ntfs, so I tried a FAT32 drive does the same.<br />
At the moment the only thing it will copy to is a FAT formatted 2gb memory stick.<br />
<br />
Which says to me it only likes to write to FAT, but I need to be a able do write to a larger drive?<br />
<br />
As MAX Fat can do is 2gb.<br />
<br />
Any &nbsp;suggestions?<br />

Knoppix Linux boot disk

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).
