Mount NTFS Partition on RHEL 5.x

First Setup RPMForge Repository by running this command :-

rpm – -import http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt

Verify the package you have downloaded:-
rpm -K rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.*.rpm

Install the package :

rpm -i rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.*.rpm

or if you dont find packages here try some other repositories like rpmfusion, epel hope you will get it..
after this run yum list command if that runs completely then Intall gcc packages from your RHEL CD/DVD or any other repository where gcc packages available.

After GCC installed

e backup of your /etc/fstab by executing this command
