[gentoo-user] NTFS support?

2005-01-31 Thread myang
My kernel was compiled without NTFS filesystem support. Now I have a harddrive formated as NTFS, and I'd like to read it under linux. I don't want to recompile the whole kernel. What should I do? Can I compile the NTFS support as a single module and load it in? How? Thanks! MF

Cooper and Neil, Thank you so much! I have one more question. If I have no source code for my current installed kernel. Is it safe to comile and install the modules from the same version kernel? My kernel came with redhat enterprise WS, and for some reason, I just could not get the source code.
