It looks like you know enough to setup /etc/fstab currectly, but in case, you need something like this to mount a ntfs partition (taken from my laptop): /dev/hda3 /windows ntfs defaults,ro,uid=45714 0 2 which means mount /dev/hda3 (3rd partition) on the directory /windows using ntfs filesystem, read-only, with that UID, and some options. NTFS you only ever want to mount read-only from Linux. Now, assuming you've got that there, and it's not mounting, I found the kernel that comes with red-hat doesn't have ntfs read support compiled in. You'll probably need to recompile your kernel. tim http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/~tnw13 Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur.
