[lug] HPFS/NTFS

Consider an HP Pavilion set up to boot both linux and windows xp,
with several partitions.  fdisk says that /dev/hda2 has type
7, HPFS/NTFS.  mount refuses to mount that partition, saying
that the fs type HPFS/NTFS is not supported by the kernel.  Does
that mean that the kernel must be rebuilt?  Can it even be
done by rebuilding?

Thanks,
