I'm experimenting with using a Knoppix CD to boot a PC I plan to try and image. I have a second machine running WinXP and a shared folder. I created /mnt/hd mount the local hard drive and /mnt/image to mount the shared drive. I have managed to temporarily mount the shared drive via: mount -t smbfs -o username=<me>,workgroup=<netbios name> //<ip_of_win_box/image /mnt/image I am prompted for the password, enter it, and am brought back to the root prompt. But, as soon as I attempt ls /mnt/image I get an immediate: ls: image : Permission denied If I cd to /mnt/image I get in, but if I perform an ls from within, I get: ls: .: Stale NFS file handle What am I missing? The goal is to use this setup in place of products like Ghost, especially with a limited budget, and a chance for me to learn more about Linux :-) Thanks for any insight. Scott
