CentOS - Mar 2008 - CentOS 5.1 Live USB NTFS Support

First of all, I was able to use the 5.1 LiveCD to create a bootable USB (8G
Lexar FireFly) - thanks to all for your assistance.  Question - has anyone
been able to add NTFS support to an USB install?  It would be a nice to have
the ability to access NTFS (and Vista for that matter) disks for
troubleshooting and general access.  Any and all comments will be
appreciated.  Thanks!

Mark

Don't forget that the default CentOS kernel can't read NTFS partitions.
If you want to create a custom LiveCD/USB, you need to include either the 
centosplus repo (and the centosplus kernel that has NTFS read 
functionnality) or RPMforge ...
