Re: Write in NTFS filesystem
Hi,
WARNING---NTFS write support is still very risky.---WARNING
You'll need to recompile the kernel with the NTFS-write option enabled.
When you did that you can mount with '-o rw' and you should be able to
write to your NTFS-partition.
### From the kernel configuration help file
NTFS write support (DANGEROUS)
CONFIG_NTFS_RW
If you say Y here, you will (maybe) be able to write to NTFS file
systems as well as read from them. The read-write support in NTFS
is far from being complete and is not well tested. If you say Y
here, back up your NTFS volume first, since it will probably get
damaged. Also, download the Linux-NTFS project distribution from
Sourceforge at <http://linux-ntfs.sf.net/> and always run the
included ntfsfix utility after writing to an NTFS partition from
Linux to fix some of the damage done by the driver. You should run
ntfsfix _after_ unmounting the partition in Linux but _before_
rebooting into Windows. When Windows next boots, chkdsk will be
run automatically to fix the remaining damage.
Please note that write support is limited to Windows NT4 and
earlier versions.
If unsure, say N.

If it is possible, how?
Thanks in advance,
