If all you're doing is creating a dd of the partition, you don't
really need ntfs support at all. All you need is drivers for the RAID
controller.

Hello again,
 
The reason I need read-only access to the NTFS partition is so I can
create a bit-copy of the partition for forensic analysis. I want to
use dd to create the bit-copy. So, how do I get the kernel that
supports Adaptec into a boot.img file that I can burn to CD? I am
assuming that once I do this, the packages will load properly from
the SCSI CD drive during the boot process. Is this correct? I hope
this isn't a really bad newbie question. Thanks.

Hello All,
 
I need some clarification. Matt built a kernel with Adaptec SCSI
support. Do I need to put the bzImage file on the CD that I want to
boot from? I put it on a floppy and tried to boot from it with the
current CD in the drive, but that did not work as planned. What I am
trying to do is gain read-only access to the NTFS partition. The CD
drive is on an Adaptec AIC-7860 controller. The NTFS partition is on
a Dell PowerEdge Expandable RAID 2 controller. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
 
Rich Thomas
