What do I need to do to mount an NTFS partition?
If you only want to read data from an NTFS partition, you only need read support (otherwise Linux couldn't read your CD). I urge you to keep it that way as enabling write support is a rather sure way to hose your NTFS partition.
I'm not sure which module to load or what to do after that point.
You don't need to load a module directly. Just create an entry for the NTFS partition in /etc/fstab, setting fs type to ntfs. Then the necessary modules get loaded automatically. Philipp
