hi:       (sorry my bad english)


I am thinking today this situation, and
http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/rpm/fedora1.html is very good, but the
problem is when fedora launch a new kernel version and wait two days for
the module ntfs.o.

apparently the unique solution is compile compile our module ntfs.o

install the rpm source-kernel

cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.22-1.xxxxxx/

make menuconfig
(here you need check the option NTFS file system support in the File
System Menu)

make SUBDIRS=fs/ntfs modules

now you have the module in /usr/src/linux-2.4.22-1.xxxxxx/fs/ntfs/ntfs.o

you need copy the file to /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.xxxx/kernel/fs/ntfs/
and load the module
insmod ntfs

ready... you can mount the ntfs filesystem with the new kernel version
and send the module to the linux-ntfs project of sourceforge
