Captive NTFS

[Tobalaz]

For anyone who hasn't heard and has a little bit of interest, Captive NTFS (http://www.jankratochvil.net/project/captive/) allows you to read and write to a NTFS disk. It's just an interesting little tidbit for anybody interested in dual booting nix and nt based oses on their pc. Just imagine the recovery possibilites when slapped on a knoppix disk, easy access with a gui to right file systems or replace faulty xp activation files (hint hint).
Besides, isn't it about time our nix section got a little love?

as of 2.6.something, you can read/write to NTFS, built right into the kernel... The way they achieve the read/write in captive ntfs is interesting though... using the actual MS driver and all.. thats really cool, and may be possibably better than the kernel's builtin r/w modules...
