Hi, complete XBMC noobie running Widoze 7 with Dharma 10.1.
Thought I'd try XBMCLive, so I followed the instructions to make a bootable USB stick, booted it and loved the speed!

However, when I go into "Add Source" none of my NTFS Partitions show up, so I cannot add my media!

Please help!
1. Make sure ntfs-3g is installed. (sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g)
2. Make sure the drives are mounted. (Google for that one.)

Thanks! Point 2 I can Google, but Point 1 is just all Greek to me! could you explain in a little bit more depth as my knowledge of Linux is, well, nil?

Thank you
like TheUriah wrote, the command to install is:
Code:
sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g

you have to run it from the console(press CTRL+ALT+F1)
Thanks Guys! At work at mo, so I'll give it a go later!
