The last time I looked at the ntfs writing support for the kernel last
week, The help said it was dangerous and a high potential to corrupt
files.  It also mentioned having to be sure and flush out the cache
for it when shutting down the system and upon boot up, having to do
something else I can't remember now.  It sounded too complicated for
me at the time.  What I'm gonna do as soon as I put win2000 on my
current dos/windows partition, I'll let it go up as NTFS but leave the
other hard drive as VFAT and that way I still have an area that is
common to both OS's with read and write capability.  I have NTFS read
enabled in the kernel for when I do this project.
