ok, someone is going to tell you about not replying to other threads. instead you should create a new email message. this is because it breaks threading in threaded mailers. there might be other reasons, like breaking threading in the archives or something. first check to see if you've got the ntfs module. see previous posts from today about loading the ntfs kernel module in redhat. if you're using redhat, see the various links provided in that previous thread. if you've got the ntfs module, then you would do something like: mount -t ntfs /dev/hda3 /mnt/ntfs change the /dev/* to whatever the correct name is for your drive. you may want to use other parameters there (uid, gid, user, users, ro, etc). as far as i know, it is still considered dangerous to write to an ntfs partition from linux. some people have had it work, but you might trash the filesystem if you do something non-vanilla. tiger -- Gerald Timothy Quimpo gquimpo*hotmail.com tiger*sni*ph http://bopolissimus.sni.ph Public Key: "gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 672F4C78" I am being nibbled to death by ducks. -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
