Writing to an NTFS partition
 
I have a WinXp NTFS partition that I want to write to on my XP/Mandrake dual boot. Is there any way or program that I can download to do this. My windows partition is already mounted.

you really don't wanna write to an NTFS partition from linux. You are almost certain to hose your windows.

Okay, thanks a lot.

I don't know if this will help but I also have a dual boot with both Windows XP and Mandrake and what I did was create a small (2gig) fat32 partition so that I could share between XP and Mandrake. Which works great because fat32 can be written to and from either Windows or Mandrake without harming either.
