READMII

INTRODUCTION
============

The NTFS-3G driver is an open source, freely available read/write NTFS driver 
for Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, NetBSD, Solaris and Haiku. It provides safe and 
fast handling of the Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000, Windows 
Vista, and Windows Server 2008 file systems. 

The purpose of the project is to develop, continuously quality test and
support a trustable, featureful and high performance solution for hardware
platforms and operating systems whose users need to reliably interoperate
with NTFS. Besides this practical goal, the project also aims to explore
the limits of the hybrid, kernel/user space filesystem driver approach,
performance, reliability and feature richness per invested effort wise.

The driver is in STABLE status. The test methods, the test suites used
can be found at

News, support answers, problem submission instructions, support and discussion 
forums, performance numbers and other information are available on the project 
web site at

with this package.

COMPILING AND INSTALLATION
==========================

Make sure you have devKitPPC and the latest libogc installed. Then type:  

 make
 make install      # or 'sudo make install' if you aren't root.


USAGE
=====

NTFS related routines can be accessed by adding the following line to your
source file(s).

 #include <ntfs.h>

When compiling you must also link against the libntfs. To do this add -lntfs
to the LIBS section of your application Makefile. For example:

 LIBS := -lwiiuse -lbte -lntfs -lfat -logc -lm

For a more practical example of using NTFS in your application,
see the included 'example' folder.
