    Hi All

    I am having some trouble with configuring my kernel to
    support ntfs. I am running RH9 with kernel 2.4.20-8. I copy
    config-2.4.20-8 to /usr/src/linux-2.4/.config. Then i run
    make xconfig and go to file systems and tick m next to ntfs
    read only then save and exit.I run make dep. I have read up
    on the net and they say you must run make clean, make
    bzImage, make modules, make modules_install and make
    install after make dep. When i do all of those it creates
    another option to boot from in grub and when i chuse it
    linux doesnt load. What i want is to make changes to my
    current kernel i dont want to have another one to boot
    from. When i chuse my original kernel i still get:

    mount: fs type ntfs not supported by kernel.

    What am i doign wrong?
