There is support for writing NTFS, but I've heard some horror stories
regarding corruption.  There's an Linux/NTFS list I used to be on and it
was talked about extensively there.  This was before there was support
in the kernel.  You could install it as a module.  Last I read on the
list  indicated that write support was really alpha.
