Also, IIRC NTFS by default mounts 500 root root. you have to change it
via the mount command to get anything different.
eg.
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/ntfs -o gid=users,umask=0227
If you'd like R/W acccess to it you need to emerge captive-ntfs, I did
a search and all I can find is ntfs-3g. Does anyone know if captive
turned into this? I did a quick search on the webpage and couldn't find
anything. Also, you'll need FUSE w/both.
