I have made a dual boot system - Ubuntu / Windows XP. XP has EFS enabled in NFTS.
Windows became corrputed during the installation and no longer boots.
I can see my windows partition from Ubuntu (which boots fine, thank you!). But the files will not open- I get a permissions error. From reading the forums /posts I gather this is because the windows files are encrypted within EFS.
I know the password for my Windows installation.
Is there anyway I can enable Ubuntu to open the EFS encrypted files on the NTFS volume?
Thanks for any help you can offer.
Regards
Matt
