Unhappy ntfs-3g deficient kernel fc6


Hi i am using fc6 and trying to mount my windows ntfs partion using ntfs-3g. It throws a warning

WARNING: Deficient Linux kernel detected. Some driver features are
not available (swap file on NTFS, boot from NTFS by LILO), and
unmount is not safe unless it's made sure the ntfs-3g process
naturally terminates after calling 'umount'. If you wish this
message to disappear then you should upgrade to at least kernel
version 2.6.20, or request help from your distribution to fix
the kernel problem. The below web page has more information:
http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#fuse26

I upgraded my kernel too but it didn't work. I didn't face any problem while using fc5 and now i don't know what to do.

Try updating ntfs-3g using yum. This will handle the dependencies and install the required newer kernel.
