Mounting NTSF in SuSE?


Hi!
I can't mount my NTFS discs in SuSE, it says that the kernel doesn't support it. Can I get this supported without recompiling?

yes and no. if you mean the kernel, then no, but you'll compile the module. so
1. go into kernel src dir.
2. "make ...config"
3. include the ntfs support as module "<M>"
4. exit config
5. make dep modules modules_install

now the module needs to be loaded before you can mount ntfs partitions. you can "modprobe" manually when you need, or you can have the ntfs module loaded at startup.
