I was not aware that it works with NTFS partitions! I've never tried that, since I have not any around. I was aware that there's some sort of NTFS read-write support in the systemrescuecd distro. There's a patch to the kernel available through their site; I don't know what else it requires; perhaps something in user-space? If that all is Free, perhaps Debian can use it? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
