Fix for Mounting NTFS Partitions

Traditionally it was easy to mount a NTFS partition in MEPIS. Due to changes in ntfs-3g and other packages, in SimplyMEPIS 8 it has been necessary to mount the partition manually. Until now.

If you have installed Beta 1 thru 4, the fix includes the following three steps.

1. Install the latest uploads of mepis-init and mepis-config

2. Make sure you are a member of the disk group

3. Per the instructions at the ntfs-3g site:
chown root.users /usr/bin/ntfs-3g
chmod 4750 /usr/bin/ntfs-3g

A special thanks to Pete Cardiff, aka Davo, for his helpful suggestions.
