      i havent installed Linux 9. (i assume its
      RedHat) so try to check if you have enable the
      kernel for ntfs support.. u may want to check
      /lib/modules/[kernel_version]/fs if you have a
      ntfs… if you dont have one recompile your
      kernel and do-t ntfs option on mount.. though
      you can only read and not write on it.. its very
      dangerous to write.. unless data in it are
      disposable… good luck

      Hello

      Download the appropriate rpm that matches your kernel version and RedHat release from this link.

      http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/info/redhat.html

      Log in as root and

      install the rpm with

      rpm -ivh

      Install the module using insmod ntfs.o. Also, edit your rc.local and add the line insmod ntfs.

      Create a mount point…

      mkdir /mnt/ntfs

      mount your ntfs volume

      mount -t ntfs /dev/hdxn /mnt/ntfs or add an entry in /etc/fstab

      Prakash.

      kinda makes you want to start sharing off the Linux box, doesn’t it. It shares to just about every kind of pc network ever created.

      #mount -t nfs /dev/hda1 /mnt

      Note : this is right if your win2K is on the first partition of your first IDE drive

      Just as a goof, try looking in your /mnt directory for a windows folder. Both Redhat 9 and Mandrake 9 like to include NTFS support by default. For example, on my dual-boot WinXP/Mandrake9.1 box, the NTFS partition was mounted to /mnt/windows automatically.
