Mounting external firewire hard drive in redhat?

Post by touser3 »

Hi all, i have an external 60gb firewire hard drive formatted with the NTFS file system which has my whole mp3 collection on it. My question is, how would i mount this drive for read only support as i know write support for NTFS is very flakey in linux and i cannot afford to lose the data on this drive. I am running redhat 7.3 with the KDE 3.0 desktop and i am a complete newb so if anyone could please tell me if this is possible and how to do this in newb instructions it would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks in advance!
