Im trying to get ntfs support but so far i try to mount my partition and always get ntfs not supported by kernel

so far i have enabled ntfs as a module and added write support

i emerged ntfsprogs and it still does not work

I dont know what else to do and i dint know if ntfsprogs is needed but i presume so

bin_streamer,

NTFS write support is limited to overwriting existing files without changing their size.

Provided you have made the NTFS module, and installed it, it just worls when you say mount -t ntfs ......
