They works ok, like any other WinNT machine. However, I haven't tryed to mount an NTFS partition from Linux, yet. The worst: I used Partition Magic 7 to resize the NTFS partition. Its a commercial tool. If you can convert it to FAT32, you can do it. AFAIK, the NTFS support on Linux always has been experimental for reading, and very experimental for writing. I had some problems with my installation, because the network card hasn't support on kernel-2.2.20 and I like to install from net :-) -- German Poo Caaman~o mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ubiobio.cl/~gpoo/chilelindo.html
