Using the NTFS package works OK, but you cannot write from Linux, only read. If you format a partition on FAT32, you can both read and write, but the filenames are only 8.3 (like DOS), which is kind of a pain...
Hughes, Which distributions support NTFS write? I certainly would like to have that capability...
In Fedora, and presumably also other Red Hat distributions, reading a FAT32 partition shows the 8.3 versions of the filenames, not the full ones that you see on the Windows side.
I have ever installed Mandrake 9.2 on my PC. One day, I mount my usb disk and copy some file to one of the partition. Then I found the partition was an NTFS partition. So Mandrake 9.2 should be able write NTFS partition, right?
But I really didn't find any documents about the ability of Mandrake to write NTFS partion. And now my linux isn't mandrake, I can't prove it now.
