I don't think so. At the very least, just be careful to umount it if
you make any changes and give it time to write everything out to disk.
I believe that should be 2.6.20-rc1 above; we are probably a ways
away from 2.6.28 :-). I do not know if any of the proper fixes have
been backported to the current FC6 kernel or not.
If you are using SELinux, you will probably run into issues if you
want to mount it on boot and umount it on shutdown. SELinux doesn't
like something.

If you don't already know, you can run /sbin/fdisk -l as root and it
should list them as NTFS type. I forget what number it is, but I
think it should also say NTFS.
Thanks, it does list them as NTSF or W95 etc.
