Apparently i hear that NTFS write support is 99% now in the 2.6.x
kernels....however even in the later 2.4.x kernels it's marked as
EXPERIMENTAL/DANGEROUS. I'm sure you'll be able to find somebody with
first hand experience using NTFS writing on the 2.6 kernels. I'm
considering trying it out myself upon my upgrade to 2.6
