Details on what you want to do are at http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/sho...d.php?t=112316
If you don't like using yum (which I don't), you can manually download the packages referenced there and then install them locally using smart. If you don't have smart (you probably don't), you can find smart at http://labix.org/smart |
don't write to it, it's getting some positive feedback, but if you have any way to avoid the need to write to ntfs then do it. change your filesystem to fat, use a seperate fat32 transfer partition etc... if you value your data, don't try to write to ntfs.

From the Unoffical Fedora FAQ:
Quote:
I suggest that if you need to share files between Linux and Windows, that you create a separate FAT32 partition. Both Linux and Windows can safely read and write FAT32. I hope this helps --Ian EDIT: Beaten to it... |
NTFS write support is still at its infant(y). even if you can, avoid writing to an NTFS partition whilst inside of a linux box it can screw up the partition. go with acid suggestion and make a fat partition for such purposes. fat is very much nicely supported by all linux distro's.

Hello furgan
You may try the new ntfs-3g driver from Here Quote:
It seems that this issue about writing to ntfs partitions is now almost solved and has reached a secure enough point as for 32-bit architectures. Things always move forward especially in computer/development fields. |
Check what is the status of FUSE NTFS project. They say they have more progress than kernel-modules variant, but I heard it's a trick to find actual status of the project - some README's are outdated.

check this thread out, it talks about the same thing and has a solution too.
