Can someone tell me how I can edit files on my NTFS partition?
I know the NTFS write support is only limited to edit files without changing the size.
I tried to but I always can a 'permission denied' error. Permissions are set
So any user should be able to edit the file.
It's no problem if I damage the file. I fact, I mean to

I installed captive and mounted the partition with the captive-ntfs option
| Code: |
/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows captive-ntfs users,uid=mario,noatime,noauto 0 0

I also needed to copy ntoskrnl.exe and ntfs.sys to /var/lib/captive. After that I was able
to remove some files. Write support for NTFS is still dangerous but this worked for me.
