You have to use captive-ntfs to write to NTFS. You need a few files from Windows 2000/XP systems to make captive-ntfs work.
I think Knoppix by now comes with captive-ntfs to write to NTFS partitions because what klaus has mention at

Like everybody said the kernel's NTFS module does not support full write support for NTFS partitions, so make sure you specify read-only when using the kernels NTFS module.
