tyme Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 can you post the contents of your /etc/fstab file? let us know if you need help finding/opening this file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindwave Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 sounds like you may not have NTFS support missing. the exact name of the file escapes me but someone here will remember it. plus even though you can "see" it in koqueror, you have to make sure you go into MCC and mount it. j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medo3891 Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 NTFS read/write support is available out of the box since 2008.1. As has been said, did you try mounting the NTFS partitions in the Mandriva control centre>local disks>manage disk partitions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
