Mostly correct. Linux has extensive support for various types of hardware RAID devices. This device will most likely be one of those supported devices, so that being the case, you'll be able to recover your data without issue. I have no experience with MS virtualization, but I imagine they use file-backed devices. If you can recover those files, there is probably a utility somewhere that will convert them to VMDK or some other useful format for loading with VirtualBox or KVM. If they are device-backed (think LVM-backed volumes), you'll need to first identify which partition is used by which guest and dd the image. -S -- You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe. _______________________________________________ KCLUG mailing list [email protected] http://kclug.org/mailman/listinfo/kclug
