it's dieing in the ntfs fs code (thank you microsoft for yet another proprietary mess). if it is happening after you restart from windows, perhaps windows is putting the ntfs partition into a state that the linux driver doesn't cope with very well, e.g. it crashes. if that is the case, i doubt there is much you can do about it except report the bug to your distro and hope it gets fixed in a later rev of the ntfs driver. -- Aaron J.
