Hi,

I only yesterday installed Red Hat 9 on my system. Everything looks fine
except I cannot access my Windows XP partitions (NTFS 5). Already while
installing linux I wasn't offered a mounting point for /dev/hda1 or
/dev/hda2, where my Windows data lies.

What can I do? My kernel info (KDE control center) says that my 2.4.
kernel offers NTFS support. This is enabled.

So anybody knows where the problem is?

Any help would be appreciated as I am new to Linux.

Thanks!
Andreas
