convert works well. been a while since i've used it. requires a reboot since it won't convert a live filesystem (needs to mount it read only to convert, iirc). > Seems like doing it, but I'm suspicious about NTFS and the linux kernel. > Has it got out of EXPERIMENTAL ? > No, but I've used it off and on for a few years without incident. Of course, read-write is REALLY experimental. I think I've used that before too but it would have been a long time ago. Ahhh, but you want write support. I probably wouldn't recommend it. I'd be surprised if the Linux kernel driver has kept up with the latest version of NTFS given how the feature has never moved out of experimental to begin with. > > And what about permissions in NTFS when XP doesn't even have a decent > way to manage it...
