This project's aim is to fully support reading/writing to NTFS, using Microsoft's driver(sort of a wrapper around it, there is now similar approach for NDIS drivers).
The only catch is licensing issue as one is not supposed to be allowed to distribute NTFS.sys etc. without permission from MS. But copying from an existing machine or using the existing one on the NTFS partition should be possible, with some scripting.
Thought that people may find it useful and pass along the info.
BTW, they have .deb package.
