CentOS6 mounts read and write NTFS partitions (ntfs-3g)

CentOS is not like Fedora. By default, NTFS is not automatically mounted, and it can use NTFS-3G for mounting and reading and writing.

NTFS-3G is an open source software that enables NTFS read and write support in operating systems
such as Linux, Free BSD, Mac OSX, NetBSD and Haiku. It can safely and quickly read and write NTFS partitions of the Windows
system without worrying about data loss.

This article explains how to install NTFS-3G on CentOS to practice the NTFS partition.

First you must have the source of the rpmforge software library installed
