I've written to NTFS successfully in Linux from a Knoppix CD. I've only written small files, like a network card driver and NTLDR from a server onto a non-bootable workstation.

Does anyone have actual horror stories about damaging an NTFS partition, and what did they do at the time? We all caution newbies (and veterans) about writing to NTFS, but is there any real experience with this?
