Root access from windows
 

I'm happily accessing mmc1 and mmc2 on my N810 from Windows.

Is there any way of accessing the system drive from my Windows desktop?

No.

OK, I lied. You can access it over networking, whether USB or wifi. WinSCP on Windows and OpenSSH is the easiest way I know. But you can't mount it directly as a local drive.

Thanks, Benson. Why is it not mountable directly like the 2 mmc drives? Linux file system unreadable to Windows, maybe?

That's not necessarily an issue. I'm using an ext3 filesystem (Linux) on my SD card, and accessing that with the ext2 IFS driver in Vista.

The trouble is that the OS is running off the root filesystem; you can't umount it because it's in use, and if you mount it two places at once, your filesystem will get corrupted.
