hi
i just finished installing my gentoo kernel, all functions well (until now)
but as i wanna mount my windows partition i get the following error :

mount : unknown filesystem type ntfs

i think that my kernel doesn't support the ntfs filesystem now, but i don't know how to add this support to it, can someone help please.

ah i forgot, i have kernel-2,6.15 i think it's the newest one.

Just recompile the kernel with NTFS support.
EDIT: Before recompiling try
Code:
modprobe ntfs

in /usr/src/linux:
Code:
make menuconfig
File systems -> DOS/FAT/NT Filesystems -> NTFS file system support
