Well, there is something for reading NTFS, i have not tested this myself, but you are welcome to try.
ftp://ftp.frontier.dk/Linux/Network/FileSystem/ntfs-9.tar.gz
___(README)___________________________________________________________________ This is a read-only driver for the Windows NT file system, or NTFS. Read the file INSTALL on how to compile the driver and supporting tools. Make sure you understand that this is alpha software. This means that the implementation is neither complete nor well-tested. Still, it works for me and others, so you can try it out. You should know how to restore the system after a crash, and have a backup of any valuable data, just in case. __(END)_______________________________________________________________________
