From a Linux what is the best way to be able to edit, create, or copy and paste Windows XP files and folders, (with the ntfs-3g) in a multiple boot system ? I have Ubuntu 8.04, and open SUSE 11, and Fedora 9 with XP media center edition. So is it only by in a terminal as root user, to be able to have access rights to do this? For example to edit a plain text file such as the boot.ini file or a simple note pad file. I did try this in SUSE using the kdesu command and full file path, but got the; "Access Denied" error message. My XP partition does auto-mount in all my Linux, so it is listed in the; /etc/fstab files. Thanks.

I did find these sites for help; http://www.ntfs-3g.org/index.html ,and this here; http://www.linux-ntfs.org/doku.php , so I will read and search on those web pages then.

I have this ntfs-3g file edit and save changes from a Linux to XP now all working in 5 Linuxs, see this other thread for the main solutions, over to here; http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ssions-743005/ , thanks.
