Mandrake 8.0 and Cooker both have support for NTFS5 (NTFS under 
Win2k, and 'Whistler').

simply type the 'mount' command in reguard to which drive AND 
partition contains the NTFS volume

Example:

mount /dev/hdc1 /mnt/disk (Will mount the secondary/master hard 
drive's first available partition)

DO NOT ENTER FILE SYSTEM TYPES in the mount command.  Use the 
straight mount request, and the kernel will autodetect the 
revision of NTFS used on that volume.

NOTES;

Linux doesn't support Windows' "Dynamic Volume's".  Such as 
simple dynamic volumes, striped and mirrored volumes, etc.  
Confer with the Microsoft "help" in reguard to the definitions 
of "Dynamic Volumes", "striping" and "mirroring".
