HOWTO. Writing to your Windows 2000/XP/NT
(NTFS formatted) from Linux.
Interested in using NTFS-FUSE to write to WINDOWS 2000/XP partitions (NTFS formatted).
Or alternatively, using Captive to write to WINDOWS 2000/XP partitions (NTFS formatted).
Then click here:
http://linux.coconia.net/
The site also provides guide to installing WINDOWS 2000/XP on a spare partition.
There is also code for JAVASCRIPT MOVIES (and a few to watch).
Also has a section on how to REMIX YOUR 14 Debian CDs as 2 DVDs.
And a guide to a Gentoo 2006 installation and even a script to walk you through a GENTOO 2005 INSTALLATION. |

| I have always just mad a separate partition for Linux. What you are asking for may not be the best way to go. NTFS partitions can be read from a Linux formated partition.

There are some tests at:

NTFS-FUSE turns out to be better. |

not naturally, it has to be compiled in (yuck).
Linux older than 2.4 cannot. I'm not sure if 2.4 can or not. |

Someone better let the people at Novell know about this. When I installed Suse 10.1 Beta 9 there was not a choice of using NTFS-FUSE. |

No. For example SuSE 10.0 comes with read-only support but no
support for writing.

You're welcome. Note that all open source write solutions are only partial solutions. |

| The newest Linux kernel (2.6.16) has NTFS write support, but it is still experimental. |

| I just stumbled across this NTFS3g on the Gentoo Forums today! I haven't had much luck with captive and ntfs-fuse and the like - and have been using a fat32 partition to transfer between operating system. I'm probably going to stuff this in the machine tonight and see how it works. |
