In linux kernel since version 2.6.20 (release Date: 2007-02-04)  
NTFS is the file system of Microsoft Windows NT, 2000, XP and 2003.

Saying Y or M here enables read support. There is partial, but
safe, write support available. For write support you must also
say Y to "NTFS write support" below.

There are also a number of user-space tools available, called
ntfsprogs. These include ntfsundelete and ntfsresize, that work
without NTFS support enabled in the kernel.

This is a rewrite from scratch of Linux NTFS support and replaced
the old NTFS code starting with Linux 2.5.11. A backport to
the Linux 2.4 kernel series is separately available as a patch
from the project web site.

For more information see <file:Documentation/filesystems/ntfs.txt>
and <http://www.linux-ntfs.org/>.

To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called ntfs.

If you are not using Windows NT, 2000, XP or 2003 in addition to
Linux on your computer it is safe to say N.
