    make my read only ntfs read-write in opensuse 11.0
    « on: May 11, 2009, 01:19:08 PM »
    i know theres a load of info about it on the net, but i don't get it at all :S
    the clearest manual said i had to edit my fstab file and add -rw instead of -ro in the options section, but there is no indication about an options section and -ro doesnt appear in the file ???

    how do i do this? (my ntfs with windows XP on it is automatically mounted at boot)

    thanks!

    Not all Linux distros have the requisite tools to write to NTFS partitions.  Which distribution are you using?
    Only able to visit the forums sporadically, sorry.
