1. How to allow non-root user to read XP partition ?

I added a line to /etc/fstab :

/dev/hda1  /xp ntfs  users,uid=andrus,exec,rw,suid,umark=0777

Unfortunately, only root can access to xp directory.
User andrus does not have access to /xp directory. Why ?
2. How to write to NTFS partition from Linux ?

The fstab line above mounts /xp as read only !

3. How to read and write ext2 partition from Windows XP ?

 

Hi,

I don't know much about this but probably adding auto to the fstab 
entry would help to allow readers to read the /xp partition.

Write support for the ntfs filesystem has only recently been introduced 
in the 2.6 kernel.

About the third question I don't know.

Thanks
panda
