Perhaps you might have a look at the quantian live  distribution.  If you
can boot your PC from this you have access to R and you should be able to
acess and use any data files on your hard disk.  The current Quantian live
DVD is based on Knoppix 4.02 (I think).  I have installed the Quantian DVD
on a USB hard drive and boot from   a knoppix 4.02 live CD on one PC

Best Regards

John
