Newbie here....
Ok, I'm in need of some assistance. I recently broke a barrowed computer (IBM Thinkpad w/Win2k). Basically, in effort to use to a network printer, I switched it from a domain to a workgroup. Ended up locking myself out of the machine... none of my usernames or pswds work anymore.
A friend of mine loaned me Knoppix STD (on a CD) to get the system and SAM files off of the computer so I could brute-force them on another machine and get a legit username/pswd. However, I'm fairly new to linux...
I can't find the Travelstar HD in /dev ... I know that's where it should be, but as I said.. I'm new. I find the shell a bit confusing... can't tell directories from files. I assume the hd should appear as a directory? When I open up a text editor and look in /dev/, the directories listed there do not seem to contain the files from the HD...
Does linux not recognize the NTFS format? Is it because I'm booting from a CD? Help?
EDIT: Fixed! Thanks for the help! :-D
