My nephew's hard drive on his laptop is on its way out. He can no longer boot into Windows but I can see all his documents using a Linux Live CD (Slax).
Can anyone suggest an easy way that he can rescue all his personal documents (photos, music, other documents) in a quick and easy way? He could email them to himself as I can connect to the internet through the Live disk. Is there any easier way than emailing one picture etc at a time. Is there an easy way to connect to another computer and save everything (about 2.3GB worth of files) in a minimum amount of time? I don't know how to set up a slave drive so an easy suggestion would be welcome. The local computer repair shop is quoting a ?50 (about US $75) charge to do this. He doesn't have the money for this as he needs to buy a new hard drive and that will be fairly expensive.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
