compile your kernel with ntfs support

Because, Your kernel haven't support NTFS Partition. Try modprobe -l | grep ntfs If you found success result then try to load it using modprobe ntfs It will allow you to mount ntfs partition. Then try
mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/win
If your kernel haven't support of ntfs then you have to compile ntfs kernel module.

kernel-module-ntfs is available in the livna repository for FC4. Go install it!

The livna idea is the best in case of fc4.
Hello,

It appears that ur kernel does not support ntfs partition. Check using Xconfig and menuconfig in source directory. U will come to know @ the reason. Just in case if it is not supported, make support for it and recompile.
But, I think ntfs write support is not stable, check it.
