Description

RFSTOOL - ReiserFS for Windows - allows you to access ReiserFS partitions from a Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP system. Starting with version 0.6, it even allows you to access ReiserFS partitions from Linux ;). It is a complete rewrite of the ReiserFS functions needed to list directories or access files. Requirements

  • This tool was developed on NT/2000. The current version has support for Windows NT, 2000, XP, as well as the 16-bit products Windows 95, 98 and ME.

  • For NT/2000/XP: You need administrative privileges to run this program. Normal users will probably not have the access rights to the raw partition data.

  • You need to know the drive and partition index of the ReiserFS partition you want to read. Luckily, the new version includes an autodetect feature

  • Access is read-only. I do not intend to change that, at least for the time being.

  • Journal data is ignored. These tools show the file structure as it is ON DISK, right now.
