I'm very sure that there isn't support in the kernel yet for mounting
drivespace partitions (or other compressed partitions).  I'm positive
I've never seen anything saying there was support and I'm pretty sure
I've seen something saying there wasn't.  Still, you'll be running Linux
happily soon so you can just nuke that Windows partition entirely. ;-)
