guys

i've installed FC4 and i want to mount my ntfs partitions on that.

By searching in the forum i found that i have to install a rpm for the ntfs partition . So i downloaded the rpm which is ntfsprogs-1.12.1-1.i586.rpm and installed it properly.

i've createsd the folders according to drives like /mnt/c,/mnt/d etc..

but i don't know the line to be written in the /etc/fstab

please someone help me out in this one ........

append the line in /etc/fstab
/dev/hda1 /mnt/c ntfs ro,defaults,umask=0222 0 0

provided /dev/hda1 is ur ntfs drive and /mnt/c is the directory where you are gonna mount it.

I found this website (http://www.mjmwired.net/resources/mjm-fedora-fc3.html#ntfs) very useful, if you want a detailed tutorial.

Remember you cant write onto an nfts partition.
