I have SuSE 10.2 installed together with Windows on a laptop which I purchased a couple of years ago. The Windows partition is mounted as NTFS file system, and is called WindowsC. I have googled neft-3g but only found references to insftalling it under various versions of SuSE OTHER THAN SUSE. My questions:
1 How do I install ntfs-3g onto Linux so that I can write to the NTFS partition?
http://en.opensuse.org/NTFS seems pretty clear (although some update would be fine). Well, it has: zypper sa http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/filesystems/openSUSE_10.2/ Filesystems (above has to be one line) sa is source-add URL Filesystems is alias that can be used instread of long URL Next would be: zypper in ntfs-3g which should pull in as dependency fuse. Or go to YaST and use Software Management.
2 Will ntfs-3g come with and be installed with 10.3?
Yes, it is integrated, so if you use mount command then Windows will be mounted read write. You would have fun if you install 10.3 as it has much more to offer, and now in Beta2 is quite usable. Actually I'm going to 10.2 just when Beta shows teeth,... Yes, Betas can't be main and only system. It is even recommended to install them on production machines, but
