OK, I guess it can't be done. Google came up with this page, which suggests that you can actually write to a dos filesystem, which is why I pursued it. http://linux.about.com/library/bl/open/newbie/blnewbie4.2.3.htm From there I looked at my kernel config, saw that there is now support for ntfs, and took it from there. Close, but no. Thanks for your time.
