Issue: 
How do I mount an NTFS partition from the command line and save this in /etc/fstab to mount during the boot sequence? 

Resolution:If running a dual boot system with Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Windows and you are wanting to access the NTFS drive there is a unsupported and highly developmental kernel module which allows a read-only mounting of an NTFS partition. To persue this method you will need to first visit [[www.linux-ntfs.org/]] and download the particular RPM which matches your kernel version. To know which kernel version you are running you can type the following command: 
  # uname -r
  2.4.21-20.EL
After downloading the RPM best suited for your system install the package as follows: 
  # rpm -ivh kernel-ntfs.rpm
This will configure all necessary items to have the module load correctly on bootup. For now, load the module manually type the following: 
  # modprobe ntfs
If the module loads successfully you will be able to mount a NTFS partition just like any other filesystem type: 
  # mount -t ntfs /dev/hdb /mnt/ntfs
Next edit /etc/fstab and append the following line to have your NTFS partition mounted during each boot: 

 
  /dev/hdb        /mnt/ntfs             ntfs    defaults        0 0
