Writing to NTFS is fine with Knoppix (I do it routinely) but for whatever reason, it can't be done--or done easily--in Mandriva. Miark ----cjs reply---- thats probably because mandriva writes files to the hard disk in a different way. I noticed that if i save a multiline text file in mandriva and open that same file in windows, it will display a little block at the end of the line and it will not start a new line after the end of that block. Knoppix is probably designed to work more efficiently with NT file systems then mandriva is. ----end of reply---- ____________________________________________________ Want to buy your Pack or Services from Mandriva?
