The era of meta spamming has been over for a long time now thanks to the introduction of Google. The emphasis for a while now has been on votes (or inlinks) but “What’s next?”. That’s a pretty ignorant question I know as there are always new factors being taken into consideration and implemented by the major search engines.

As a Linux user I was quite surprised to see GIMP crash on Windows Vista when using certain features like “Colourise”. I’ve never had a problem with GIMP on various Linux distributions so I wasn’t sure if there was a bug in the Windows build or something up with Windows in general. With no updates available and nothing on Google I started thinking it was something to do with Windows and permissions.

I thought I would help define the clear differences by writing this as it’s something of great interest to me at the moment.

After setting the Windows hard drive as the primary boot device I set out to not only read the Linux filesystem (ext3) with all my work but to also continue it in Apache under Windows which, to my surprise, was actually very easy. By the end of this reference you should be able to use your Linux filesystem within Windows and use Apache to read and use the website related content off your Linux filesystem.
