You need to recompile the kernel. I'm not sure about 2.0.x, but 2.2.x has
NTFS support for sure - AFAIK only readonly support is considered stable,
but rw is also there "for the brave" :)

Luckily I'm Polish, so i need iso-8859-2 as well :)

are only helpful (but not essential) for use with the msdos-like
filesystems (msdos,vfat) - so you can see your national chars in file NAMES.
The modules themselves do not work after installing, you'll need special
mount options for them, to be active.
I've got:
defaults,noatime,nodev,umask=000,quiet,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-2,noexec
in options for my win95 filesystems
read mount(8) for more/accurate info.
hope this helps
