I've seen some posts about someone getting DSL running with captive ntfs. The referrenced links no longer work, though.

I've been trying to "roll-my-own", but with little luck.

My understanding is that you need to copy a couple of windows files from the NTFS volume, dismount the NTFS volume, then remount it with captive-ntfs. This should give me the ability to read and WRITE to the NTFS volume.

I seem to get close to get it working, but I think my development environment is too small, as I quickly run into memory space issues.

Anyone have this already up and working that could help me out?

Thanks
