ADSL modems on Ubuntu and mounting my NTFS volumes

[Jonny69]

Next question. It's possible to install the BT Voyager 105 modem to Linux using the eciadsl drivers supplied at flashtux. There are several available for different distros, Fedora, Gentoo etc. Anyway are any in the list suitable for Ubuntu? I can't afford a router at the mo so it's out of the question unfortunately. There is a quite a nice guide here which I'm going to give a go.

Also I have Linux on a dual boot. The hard disk disk is configured with two NTFS partitions, then the Ubuntu partition, then the swap. How do I go about mounting my NTFS volumes so I can read my Windows files, Mp3s etc in Ubuntu? I understand I can't write to the NTFS volume, but read access would be great. I'm trying to make out the guide in the FAQ currently but will need help!

That's great, I like the way it mounts volumes in a pre-chosen folder. Thanks for the help so far chaps.

I got the following error with eciadsl:

Selecting previously deselected package eciadsl-usermode.
(Reading database ... 56661 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking eciadsl-usermode (from eciadsl-usermode_0.11-1_i386.deb) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of eciadsl-usermode:

Package pppoe is not installed.
dpkg: error processing eciadsl-usermode (--install):

Errors were encountered while processing:

...and there don't appear to be any other folders that belong with the eciadsl one so I don't think it installed anything.

That's kind of what I meant but I worded it badly. I mounted it in a folder on my desktop
