Or you can build your Kernel with the NTFS compiled in, and then you can just mount ntfs easily
mount -t ntfs /dev/hda3 /ntfs --> where hda3 is the NTFS partition, and /ntfs is the directory you want it to be mounted at. You can write to NTFS with newer kernels, but it is still in developement. You have to compile the kernel with support for writing to NTFS though. Good luck Ben -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
