I have a dual boot mac running bootcamp running Mac OS X and Windows XP. My Windows portion crashed and I cannot recover it without a full install. However, I have several bookmarked pages in Firefox on the Windows side that I would really like to get. I cannot get to windows to properly export the bookmarks from Firefox. Question is: is there a file where bookmarks are kept that I can retrieve though a command line and save it to my MAC side.

¡Hola!

Firefox Sync should do the trick.

Please see How do I set up Sync on my computer?

Let us know if this solves your question.

¡Gracias!

Yes I image it is trivially easy for you to do.

I do not use OS-X or bootcamp but do have multi boot systems.

You need to find the Firefox profile in Windows and then you need to look for either profiles.sqlite which is the bookmarks database, or the bookmarks backups folder which has backups you may restore.

Although not fully applicable look at

I may not be able to help with OX-X or bootcamp specifics but may be able to help with more general advice. (Or explain how to boot from and do it in Linux)
