Sometime on May 7, R cobbled together some glyphs to say:
Some information is missing. The ntfs partition must have been there
because windows could create it so it has to be read/writable. Does
the user want to use the net in windows or linux or both? Partition
type should not matter.
Windows is installed on NTFS partition - there is no FAT32 partition.
Windows already connects to net
System dual boots with linux
linux cannot read/write NTFS without a kernel module or something else
linux cannot connect to net
1. problem: how to connect to net on linux
2. solution: use wine to run the dialler off windows
3. problem: dialler is on NTFS partition, linux cannot read
4. solution: download package for linux to read NTFS
5. problem: linux cannot connect to net
6. solution: download on windows and copy to linux
7. problem: linux cannot read NTFS
8. solution: goto 4.
:)
We're trying to solve the wrong problem.
