Title: mounting ntfs drive
Post by: ahluka on March 19, 2006, 07:17:27 AM

I can't get my FC4 to mount my ntfs partition. I know it can because I've done it before, but it moans:

Do you have the ntfs driver installed?

edit: if you updated your kernel you'll need to update to the coresponding driver
