Add a line like this to your fstab /dev/hda6 /mnt/e ntfs ro,noauto,user,umask=022 0 0 Make sure that it is ro! Writing to a ntfs partation is a good way to check your backup procedures for windows. I haven't tried to read an encrypted ntfs partation it will probably fail. It doesn't seem to have any problems with the file by file compression that y0u can do in Win2k. As root modify you fstab. As root create a directory /mnt/e (or whatever you choose to call it) issue a mount command just like you would for a fat32 or other non-auto mounted partition. In my install the module is load by the OS I didn't change anything else. I am surprised that the installer didn't do this for you it did for me. pben On Sunday 29 June 2003 05:03 pm, Michael Satterwhite wrote:

When going through configure, I found that the default SuSE configuration has NTFS (read-only) access enabled as a module. What do I need to do to mount an NTFS partition? I'm not sure which module to load or what to do after that point. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2-rc1-SuSE (GNU/Linux)
