Can I mount Ntfs partition in Fedora 7 ?

When I try to assign mounting point via Fedora Installer, It somehow disabled Mount Point field.

How can I enable it ?

Why do you wanna set an NTFS as a mountpoint (/, /boot, /home, etc ..) ? Linux doesnt allow you to install itself on NTFS, not yet. Format it into EXT3 and then mount it as / and proceed.

@QwertyManiac
I want to view it from the fedora 7........I already reserve seperate space(Free Space) for fedora.

Ok My question is, Am I view the Ntfs drive from Fedora after installing ... just Like Ubuntu.

Is it going to show by default in "Places--->Removable Media" or Some where else, If I don't assign mount point during installation.


As I remember when I installed Open Suse 10.2...Manually I assign the Mount point to get the NTFS drive in that distro. Like:- /media/sda1

Please Reply.

I installed the Fedora 7 in my PC and posting from that now....I can easily surf the net but can't get the software list or update.

When I use Add/Remove program or Software update, It says no network connection available....

Please experts help me or point out where to look up.


I am using DataOne BB (MT882) with always on mode, Sharing between two PCs.
