I downloaded a NTFS file with ubuntu and it is currently in /home. I'd like to put in the Windows XP in hda1.
There's a hda1 icon on the ubuntu desktop but its permissions are currently 400 and greyed out so
I can't write to it. I tried chmod 660 but it has no effect.

How can I get that NTFS file into hda1 without doing it in Windows?

Problem solved....... Too much of a hastle doing it in ubuntu so I downloaded it with Windows XP

I was hoping to do all my internet work with ubuntu but apparently there are still some limitations. .

Thanks for the responses.
