ntfs-3g in which debian iso image

[Arkady]

would anyone know if ntfs-3g package is in one the downloadable iso images for debian? either in etch / lenny...

i have read somewhere that the ntfs-3g package is not part of the packages for etch... i would think that it should be pretty much common use already...

i'm still downloading at a very slow rate, so i couldn't check,
if someone out there knows the particular cd / dvd to download for this package, that saves me time, and bandwidth for the mirrors...

The fastest way to install it would be with apt:

apt-get install ntfs-3g

i have to install at home, to a pc with no internet connection ...

heyy... that was great help, many thanks

as suspected, etch does not have the package,

good thing i'm downloading lenny now, but i'm a bit
sentimental about etch, and it sounds like a better
name than lenny...


curiously, the quick reply doesn't work **
