HELP! Problems mounting/writing to external HDD

[Harry Kuhman]

.....Your externally formatted NTFS HD will need to be mounted with write access as you are going to copy data onto it....Using FTP requires a saecond computer and is unneccesary.

Unless, of course, corrupting a NTFS disk because you wrote to it with Knoppix is a problem. Then safely transferring the files across a network may in hindsight seem like it would have been a very good idea.
