136         <li>Derek J Witt
137                 <p>I commend you for this project. I am currently using this on my XP NTFS
138                 partitions and I am impressed that I can actually move, edit, and remove files
139                 and directories with no apparent ill effects. This is very nice indeed.</p>
140                 <p>I initially was skeptical because it uses wine and parts of ReactOS
141                  (I have messed with this OS a few times), but you have proved me wrong. I have
142                 noticed no lag on my system.  I do notice the initial mounting process does
143                 take slightly longer than the Linux-NTFS project. But, once I'm past that, it's
144                 quite transparent.</p>

148                 <p>Just wanted to drop you a note and say &quot;Excellent work!&quot;</p>
149                 <p>I just installed captive and it worked as advertized right out of the
150                 rpm.  Thanks, I've been holding off recompiling my kernel until NTFS is
151                 supported out of the box for Redhat.  Now I don't have to bother.</p>
152                 <p>Thanks again and keep up the great work.</p>

186 Linux kernel versions in the binary packages above (<b>.i386.rpm</b> and
187 <b>_i386.deb</b> archives).</p>

191 recommended to upgrade to the latest stable kernel supplied by your GNU/Linux

193 <b>kernel-source</b> (Red Hat) or <b>kernel-headers</b> (Debian) matching your
194 Linux kernel version (<b>rpm&nbsp;-q&nbsp;kernel</b>) and re-run <span

199 modifications may include a dependencies rebuild, compiling build tools, fixes of
