hi my name is pritpal singh and i have a dual-boot set up going on. i have redhat 9 installed on hda3 and windows xp installed on hda1. the problem is that i have windows xp installed on a ntfs file system. when i want to mount windows xp redhat, i type in "mount /dev/hda1 /home/psingh/win." the problem is that it says "mount: fs type ntfs not supported by kernal." i understand that the ntfs file system is not supported by the kernal but is there i way i can get at least read-only access to the partition? Just read-only, thats all i need. i don't wanna have to reinstall windows xp on a fat32 file system because with fat32, a lot of security features are lost. i hope you help me.
