Can Linux read NTFS files and viceversa?
I have two hard disks with XP Pro FAT32 on one, XP Pro NTFS on the other. I intend to again install Linux (you, stubborn fool you!), probably Lycoris or Mandrake 9. Will I be able to read and write to the NTFS partition and viceversa?
Thanks |
welcome to linuxquestions, but PLEASE search for information before asking questions http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...der=descending
the short answer, for both, is "no" though. |

Firstly I second that http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/search.php is a VERY good idea ... :} The LONG answer, however, is that you can compile Linux with NTFS read and even write support (the latter is *not* recommended, though, because that part is still in early development)... NT can't read any of the Linux native filesystems, though :) Cheers, Tink |
