Two big mistakes. To pass options to linux (or **ix in general) programs, you have to use a hyphen sign "-", not a slash. Slashes are Dos-style. (This is where the "Wrong file system" message comes from, I assume). Second mistake: / is the mount point for the root partition. Go ahead and create a directory like /mnt/windows and use this as a mount point for the ntfs partition. Your command should look something like that: # mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows If you use a standard debian kernel, this should be enough. hth, joerg -- Gib GATES keine Chance!
