mount wubi disk

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1564156

Code:

sudo mount -o loop //root.disk /mnt
nautilus /mnt   # to browse

If you have problems mounting it, you can fsck it (don't do it if you mounted it already):

Code:

sudo fsck //root.disk

Make a new text file:

Code:

#!/bin/sh
sudo mkdir -p /media/WindowsXP
echo "Mounting NTFS Partition"
sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /media/WindowsXP
sleep 1
sudo mkdir -p /media/root.disk
echo "Mounting Wubi Disk"
sudo mount -o loop /media/WindowsXP/ubuntu/disks/root.disk /media/root.disk
sleep 1
echo "Done :)"
gksu nautilus /media/root.disk
exit 0 &

Save this as mountwubi.sh. Right click this new file, select Permissions tab and put a tick in the Execute box.

Create another text file:

Code:

#!/bin/sh
echo "Unmounting Wubi Disk"
sudo umount /media/root.disk
sleep 1
echo "Unmounting NTFS Partition"
sudo umount /media/WindowsXP
sleep 1
echo "Done :)"
exit 0 &

Save this as umountwubi.sh. Right click this new file, select Permissions tab and put a tick in the Execute box.


Double clicking mountwubi.sh and selecting Run in Terminal will mount your old wubi install and open a root nautilus for full access to the files.
The function of umountwubi.sh is pretty obvious
