Hi,

It's been a while since I last did this, but I remember I also downloaded the
ntfs-3g RPM from Dag and from memory, I then just had to use the mount command
to mount the NTFS partition.

Do a rpm -ql on the package to see what it installs and what binaries are
available to you, then man on some of those binaries.

After you've figured that out, setup your fstab to automount those ntfs
partitions on boot.

Regards,

Michael.
