file systems drivers

You should just stick w/ ro for now unless you want to risk data loss. 
You should dedicate a directory on each disk or partition for shared
files and rsync them at boot time.

Conversely, how can I read the NT file system (ver.5)from Linux? The man page for mount seems to say that ntfs is supported, but when I tried it, mount gave an error message saying the kernel does not support ntfs.
