If you are using the module from linux-ntfs.souceforge.net (sorry I did
not see which you were told to use) it seems stable to me.
No it cannot be written (except very limited), see my earlier note where
I referenced the FAQ at
http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/info/ntfs.html .
What a lot of people do when they want to read/write to/from each os is
create a fat32/vfat partition that then can be used read/write by both
systems. Any data put in there from either Windows or Linux can be
read/written from the other. Otherwise it is basically a one-way
street.
