how do i recompile the kernel in fedora core 2 inorder to get the ntfs support??? in red hat 9.0 i just used this commands:
make mrproper
make xconfig
make dep
make bzImage
make module
make module_install
make install
when i tried xconfig in fc2 the gui was somewhat corrupted not displaying the correct characters!
so, i tried make menuconfig, everything worked well until when i reboot my system and it got errors and won't be able to boot anymore.
what shall i do????
and also i got this rpm file in the net that says it will enable ntfs support. if i install it will i be able to get ntfs support without even recompiling the kernel???
also it says it has full support for ntfs, does it mean it has write support for ntfs??? is it safe to use it??

Could you give the link to the rpm file that you are using?
Compiling support via the kernel has changed somewhat in the 2.6 kernel series. Are you trying to compile the kernel that came with Fedora or from kernel.org?
If the stock kernel from Fedora, did you install the kernel image or sources as well?
You can also try make gconfig or make menuconfig and see if the text displays properly. Menuconfig is the older less graphic menu, while gconfig is more graphical friendly and easier to navigate for most.
