 Start up your NTFS-based computer using Microsoft Windows. Then create a network share for the folder or a share for the entire drive.
 
 Then boot your 2nd computer with DSL.
 
 Either use the built-in "ftp-like" utility called smbclient to grab files from the Windows/NTFS system,  or install all of the SAMBA system and then you can use smbmount to mount your Windows share in DSL.
 
 For example:
 
 sudo su
 mkdir /mnt/winshare
 smbmount //WINCOMPNAME/SHARENAME  /mnt/winshare  -o username=windowsusername,workgroup=domainname
 
 where you replace:
 
 WINCOMPNAME with your Windows computer name (right-click on My Computer or choose "System" from the Control Panel)
 
 SHARENAME with the name that you chose for your network fileshare on your Windows computer.
 
 windowsusername with your Windows computer user name
 
 domainname with your Windows computer's "WORKGROUP" or if you use Windows NT Domain services, it's your computer's "DOMAIN".
 
 Note that all of the slashes in the Linux command line are "forward slashes" like  /  and are not the typical backslashes or backwards slashes that are more commonly used in Windows or MSDOS.
 
 If you then naviagate over to /mnt/winshare, you should see the files and directories that are contained inside your Windows Network fileshare.
 
 Good Luck.
