You just need to mount the required drives.

fdisk -l

will give you the names of the partition on your system.

mkdir /mnt/C
mount -t vfat -rw /dev/hda1 /mnt/C

you can replace /dev/hda1 with whatever your drive's name is. And you can give whatever name you like instead of C I have given here.

use Puppylinux multi-session live cd. You can work on it, save files, use internet, download ertc. etc. Best parrt is you can add your own linux applications to this. I am using one and it is very good.*www.puppylinux.org/user/viewpage.php?page_id=1
