120 <h1>Installation Notes</h1>
122 <p>You should first run <b>captive-install-acquire</b> command to check your
123 available Microsoft Windows drivers versions. Now you can execute:</p>
127 # mkdir /mnt/dosc<br />
128 # mount -t captive-ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/dosc
135 <p>Any errors from '<b>captive-lufs</b>' are written to '<b>/var/log/messages</b>'.</p>
137 <p>Needed drivers (at least ntoskrnl.exe+ntfs.sys) must be in '<b>/var/lib/captive</b>'.</p>
139 <p>'<b>captive</b>' package creates '<b>captive</b>' user and '<b>captive</b>' group on your system.</p>
142 <h2>LUFS Kernel Driver Module</h2>
144 <p>@{[ a_href 'http://lufs.sourceforge.net/lufs/','LUFS' ]} (Linux Userland File
145 System) needs Linux kernel module driver (<i>lufs.o</i>) compatible with your
146 running Linux kernel. The binary driver is supplied already precompiled for many
147 Linux kernel versions in the binary packages above (<b>.i386.rpm</b> and
148 <b>_i386.deb</b> archives).</p>
150 <p>If you cannot <b>mount</b>(8) your NTFS filesystem you should run <span
151 class="quote">/usr/share/lufs/prepmod</span> to see the reasons. It is always
152 recommended to upgrade to the latest stable kernel supplied by your GNU/Linux
153 distribution vendor. You may need to install package
154 <b>kernel-source</b> (Red Hat) or <b>kernel-headers</b> (Debian) matching your
155 Linux kernel version (<b>rpm -q kernel</b>) and re-run <span
156 class="quote">/usr/share/lufs/prepmod</span>.</p>
158 <p><b>WARNING:</b> This 'captive' package may modify your Linux kernel
159 sources matching your currently running kernel version. These minor
160 modifications may include a dependencies rebuild, compiling build tools, fixes of
161 several include files, etc. All the modifications are done at the mount(8) time
162 by the automatically executed <span class="quote">/usr/share/lufs/prepmod</span> script.

172 <h2>The First Open Source MS-Windows Kernel API for Free OS</h2>
174 <p>Compatibility with the existing binary Microsoft Windows file system drivers has been
175 reached. Microsoft Windows kernel system components required by these drivers
176 were analyzed and successfully emulated in the GNU/Linux operating system.
177 The project brings the Microsoft Windows kernel emulation framework to support even
178 other types of Microsoft Windows drivers in the future.
