Mounting NTFSPartitions

[jim]

Well here is my first shot at a script with Zenity.
This script is made to help you install the ntfs kernel module and make the mount point. If everything goes well, you'll mount the ntfs partition and be able to browse it in nautilus. This script supports Fedora Core 4 and the last 2 kernels released by the Fedora Developers. This script can install the following NTFS Kernel modules:
# kernel-module-ntfs-2.6.14-1.1653_FC4
# kernel-module-ntfs-2.6.14-1.1653_FC4smp
# kernel-module-ntfs-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4
# kernel-module-ntfs-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4smp

Please be kind ! I think it needs work in the error catching sections of the modules.

There is no warrenty if you smoke your system!!! if you have a question please pm me

Nobody wants to beat up on my script ?

I'll test it out next kernel release -- the RPM is already installed for me...
EDIT: Just a tip -- instead of having 4 RPMS attached, (size increase) you could have the script install RPMS though Yum
EDIT:EDIT: I like your naming scheme -- FWscriptname and FJscriptname -- we should team up & create the F team :cool:

What do you mean? It's very stable, compatible and doesn't have any complications when using others. RPMForge & Livna have rumours, but I've used both without any trouble. Just make the script install Livna with enable=0 in the config just to be sure.

On my site, see the "references" section. All the web sites I used to learn what I currently know are posted there.

As for disabling all repos in Yum, I'm not sure... But, what you could to is temporairily move the contents of /etc/yum.repos.d into /etc/yum.repos.d.tmp and create you livna one, install, remove livna, and re-move the originals back.
