drive was originally formatted with gparted. formatted with mkfs.ntfs and
instead of mount used ntfsmount.
This allows read-write through the ntfs-progs package, but then isnt it
writting through the user-space library libntfs.so.10.0.0 instead of the
kernel modules uploaded?
Am I right that mount would call the .ko's and ntfsmount would call
libntfs... dont both have readwrite access now?
