Paragon NTFS for Linux 2.0
Publisher's Description:
Paragon NTFS for Linux - Paragon NTFS for Linux gives transparent access to any NTFS partition under Linux operating system. So you and any application can browse these drives, read and change files, copy and create new files and folders. Everything absolutely transparently – just like with “native” Ext2FS, Ext3FS or ReiserFS file system. This download package is FREE and contains full functional Paragon NTFS for Linux drivers for the most popular Linux distributions with their default kernels only: Red Hat Enterprise 4 (SW), Fedora Core 4, Mandriva 10.2, SUSE 9.3. If you have any other Linux distribution or have already changed the default kernel, you will not probably be able to use this driver. If you are interested in buying or evaluating Paragon NTFS for Linux driver for any Linux distribution you should go to http://www.ntfs-linux.com/index.htm. Note: This package contains Paragon NTFS for Linux demo version as well. The demo version mounts NTFS partitions in read-only mode only but you can install it to any Linux distribution.
Latest Changes:
- Special installation script for fast and easy driver installation - Choose Linux type to configure correctly startup services - Supports Chinese, Japanese and other Linux Localizations - Sparse file support on all NT File Systems - Access to files with more than 2 Gb

First time Linux - not impressed
I appreciate a lot of work has gone into this OS but as a complete newbie I found it very unfriendly. While I hate MS, I must say that in some ways it is more user fiendly than Linux. I tried [several] Linux OS because I needed to boot up my laptop with a dead boot disc & recover some recent files. Hence I needed to get an OS system that 1] ran from a CD 2] read my NTFS drive & 3] wrote to my USB memory stick. To be honest I cannot remember for sure [I have tried about 4 versions of Linux!], but I think Paragon would not read my hard disk, someything about HAL. I tried to mount the drive etc. but just couldn't figure it out. I finaly got Kubuntu to work; had trouble getting it to read my hard disks but this time I have succeeded! [This may have been helped by the fact that I had spent some hours SLOWLY educating myself in Linux.] I was disappointed that Paragon was advertised as reading NTFS drives but didn't without some user intervention which for an experienced user was probably a 2 seond job but proved impossible for me. In my view such an essential requirement if Linux is to make inroads into MS should not need user intervention.
I will still experiment with Linux, but this experience has dampened my hope for it somewhat.

Sorry not installed.
Although I downloade the paragon file I never actually got to use it - system crashed and I had to re-install ubutu. If I download again will be happy to report on the software.
P.S. Used paragon software for windows and it is a good product. Regards.
