I know a hdd with ext3 and vfat works well using usb.
I am running Redhat FC3.
Since the drive did not automount like the ext3 and vfat I tried the
mount command.
I get the following error (not supported):
I've not tried it, but you may need to compile a custom kernel.
Yes, I can't remember where I found it. I think somewhere on
FedoraNews.org. There was an article there explaining that you had to,
and how to, compile a custom, ntfs-capable, kernel(ro or rw) in FC. The
reasoning was that NTFS read/write is still considered experimental.
Klaus Knopper, the folks at PHLAK, and others seem to have
"experimented" successfully with it for some time now.
