I've finally got Win XP as the second OS on my mahcine. The next

So adding the NTFS write support looks like an interesting
project to undertake.

Just in case, if anybody working on it already, please let me know.
Any kinds of ready pointers to the good docs would be welcome.
Or to the existing implementations too (Linux?).

Interesting. Though I'm pretty sure that MS is going to object
strongly to any usage of their drivers outside of their OS.
Donwload it quickly before the MS lawyers have shown up.

Captive NTFS doesn't actually include any ntfs drivers. The user must supply
their own copy (presumably obtained through legitimate means) which the
captive framework then uses.
