schreiben ist nicht mehr experimentell(2.6.6) aber man kann soweit ich weiß nicht alles schreiben
In der kernel doc vom 2.6.7-rc2 steht:
To mount an NTFS 1.2/3.x (Windows NT4/2000/XP/2003) volume, use the file
system type 'ntfs'. The driver currently supports read-only mode (with no
fault-tolerance, encryption or journalling) and very limited, but safe, write
support.
Web site
========
There is plenty of additional information on the linux-ntfs web site
at
http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/
The web site has a lot of additional information, such as a comprehensive
FAQ, documentation on the NTFS on-disk format, informaiton on the Linux-NTFS
userspace utilities, etc.
Features
========
- This is a complete rewrite of the NTFS driver that used to be in the kernel.
This new driver implements NTFS read support and is functionally equivalent
to the old ntfs driver.
- The new driver has full support for sparse files on NTFS 3.x volumes which
the old driver isn't happy with.
- The new driver supports execution of binaries due to mmap() now being
supported.
- The new driver supports loopback mounting of files on NTFS which is used by
some Linux distributions to enable the user to run Linux from an NTFS
partition by creating a large file while in Windows and then loopback
mounting the file while in Linux and creating a Linux filesystem on it that
is used to install Linux on it.
- A comparison of the two drivers using:
time find . -type f -exec md5sum "{}" \;
run three times in sequence with each driver (after a reboot) on a 1.4GiB
NTFS partition, showed the new driver to be 20% faster in total time elapsed
(from 9:43 minutes on average down to 7:53). The time spent in user space
was unchanged but the time spent in the kernel was decreased by a factor of
2.5 (from 85 CPU seconds down to 33).
- The driver does not support short file names in general. For backwards
compatibility, we implement access to files using their short file names if
they exist. The driver will not create short file names however, and a rename
will discard any existing short file name.
- The new driver supports exporting of mounted NTFS volumes via NFS.
so hoffe das hilft weiter
