NTFS not supported in new kernel
When I try to mount a windows partition, it says fs ntfs is not supported in this kernel. My kernel is 2.6.1, I just compiled it about 10 days ago. How to solve this problem? Any ideas?
Thanks

recompile and add support for NTFS.
By the way, 2.6.2 is out.

ok, I think I need to recompile the kernel. oh, dear, have to do it again.
And just make sure it works this time, could you tell me which option I should choose in order to support the ntfs file system?

You might be interested in Captive NTFS. Captive follows the lead of WINE and uses your native Windows ntfs.sys driver to allow full read/write access to your ntfs partition. |

Also, are you trying to mount the partition as a normal user or as root? I believe that user-mounting is not supported (yet).
