Macs can only mount NTFS drives read-only.
This [link] is supposed to provide read-write support, but it's very new, and I don't know of anyone who has experience using it.
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

Man. I knew I was missing something obvious.
But linux can mount read-write, even though it doesn't like it, right?
What's the ideal mount state for an external drive, to be able to rwx in linux, osx, and windows? FAT32?

FAT32?
Unfortunately, yes.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Anyone here good at CSS and doesn't read BBABB++? There a centring-in-IE problem I'm at the end of my rope with.

Why on earth can't the computers just do what I tell them to do in my brain? Sigh.

Hey. New board.
No longer makes sense! I forgot about NTFS.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
ita, I won't have time to check it out until after the weekend, but I may have a clue then -- is that okay, or is it more urgent?

That'd be just fine, amych.

Frustratingly, MacFUSE will not download. Patience running short.
