Any ideas what I could be doing wrong? Thanks for this detailed tutorial. As far as I can tell the drives inside the NAS are fine, just the front-end software took a hit. I installed Virtualbox Ubuntu and followed all the instructions above, but when I add the vmdk files to the virtual guest, I can no longer boot the Ubuntu VM, it just hangs.
Perry, great article. I used it as my base guideline for reading XFS partition from Windows. But having only dabbled in Linux, there was a bit of research necessary at some of the steps. Nonetheless, I could not have accomplished it without your article. Many kudos! Here is my take on the steps needed to accomplish the task specific to my situation XP host with Ubuntu guest. I had rearrange the sequence and add some steps in order to get everything to work:.
In linux guest — Wait for CD image to appear or mount image. PhysicalDrive5 -register. I can only assume each drive is not a unique XFS filesystem and that large files would get striped across multiple disks….
It died, but I needed my info off of its XFS partition. I found a program that will do this easily called XFS Explorer. It is small and installs in windows and will read many various file systems including XFS. I just opened the NAS and put the drive into a usb hard drive enclosure, connected to windows computer, and in a minute I was copying my files from the drive to my system.
Sure, the program costs money but for me it was worth it to avoid the hassle of the above-mentioned process. Hope this helps someone. But to get to the issue:. However, it does show up correctly in the windows disk managent. Is the trial version limited to internal hard disks? And: this blog entry with the virtual machine step-by-step manual is great, thank yo so much for posting it!!!
Why go through all of that trouble? You can still access the local hard drive and NTFS write support has been included in Ubuntu since The data was valuable and I was not about to trust it to a process which has failed catastrophically in the past. People should pay to a free file system? I had started myself to use the same method you describe here but I missed some informations. A tip btw, to avoid getting errors every time you try to access your Harddrive from windows as a disk and not as files in a file system mounted in Microshit windows you need to be admin.
And that means :. This is pretty good, but you are confined in the virtual machine. I you run a samba server inside linux and you share your XFS partition, you can use the partition as a normal windows partition and have full access to it. If I connect to my windows 7 64 bit ANY linux partitioned and formatted drive, the windows 7 boot hangs.
Another Buffalo NAS user here. So … never could get vBox Guest Additions to install. Admittedly, my technical proficiency is void. But to whoever recommended UFS Explorer, it worked like a charm. UFS Explorer works only for read and copy files from XSF to win but not allow to copy files from windows to xsf partition. Need some drivers for that. Anybody have idea? Freecom user here … just backed-up more MB that I realised I had and trying to put a safety net in place for if when the NAS fails but the disks are fine.
