My primary question is how can I mount an NTFS partition on a SL 4 system. Now I think I need to recomplie the kernel with the NTFS module. This leads me to the problem that there is no kernel src rpm as mentioned in the release notes ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/40/i386/SL.documentation/ RELEASE-NOTES-x86-en "In order to eliminate the redundancy inherent in providing a separate package for the kernel source code when that source code already exists in the kernel's .src.rpm file, Scientific Linux 4.x no longer includes the kernel-source package. Users that require access to the kernel sources can find them in the kernel .src.rpm file. To create an exploded source tree from this file, perform the following steps (note that <version> refers to the version specification for your currently-running kernel): 1. Obtain the kernel-<version>.src.rpm file from one of the following sources: o The SRPMS directory on the appropriate "SRPMS" CD iso image o The FTP site where you got the kernel package" I can not see the kernel src.rpm on the SL4 ftp site, am I looking in the wrong place? Any short cuts?
