Ok, so I have successfully installed fuse version 2.4.1-r1 and captive ntfs version 1.1.6. They work WONDERFULLY!!!! ......if you are the root user....

for every other user, you are not even allowed to see that the mounted partition exists :cry:

here are the 2 mount commands I tried and the results of "ls -l" from the root users perspective
Code:
mount -t captive-ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/win -v -o umask=0000
drwxrwxrwx  1 root  root    0 Feb 26 13:57 win


Code:
mount -t captive-ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/win -v -o uid=1000,gid=100
drwxr-xr-x  1 hellboi users   0 Feb 26 13:57 win


Any help is GREATLY appreciated :)

add "umask=0000" to your mount options, it works the opposite of chmod numbers (.e its taken away from 7777 to give the permissions, that will give full permissions for everyone.

Code:
chmod 777 /mnt/win/


i ran it to double check, but the mountpoint already lets everyone access it :evil:

i get anywhere between 500 to 700 KB/sec. It uses a BUTLOAD of my cpu though :-\

I am thinking about copying all the data from my WinXP partition to a ReiserFS partition....do think that will work?? Obviously I will not be able to boot windows normally from there, but whenever stuff changes on the actual windows partition, i could make a script that copies that data over and another one that copies changed data back...this would be kinda inefficient though....

Any ideas?
