As far as I am aware.. and I haven't tried it any time recently, If your
kernel is compiled with support for it. (and I am guessing that mandrake is.
but I don't know that as a fact)
you should be able to mount NTFS as read only... support for read/write is
not so good and could corrupt your drive.

A good info page on NTFS in general with a focus on linux is:

http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/info/


hope that helps.

easiest, with GUI; as root, in a text console, without the quotes,
"diskdrake" will bring up the same as you saw using the install, if you used
"expert"
