Nehal,

Perhaps I wasn't so clear in explaining the situation.

I don't think you're going to be able to read an ext2-formatted diskette 
without some other software. I don't know for fact that there is software 
for Windows that permits it to read Linux file systems (though I'd be 
surprised if there was not).

OK, out of curiosity I did a quick check on Google. Here are a couple of 
possibilities:

Good luck.
