I have a multiboot notebook with Win98/Win2K and RH 8.0 Linux. The Win98 partition and the 2K partition (FAT and NTFS respectively) are mounted when RH8.0 boots. I have a soft link going from /usr/share/local/fonts to /mnt/C/WINDOWS/FONTS for each ttf font and this works fine and fc-cache sees everything. Yes, I edited /etc/fonts/fonts.conf as well!! I wish to nuke my 98 installation, but I still have to keep 2k for the present. Attempting the same soft link to /mnt/E/WINNT/fonts works but fc-cache fails to see anything on Linux (it doesn't report errors though) . Note that I link the fonts *not* the font directory because font-cache will want to write some data there and the NTFS partition is not mounted writeable. Local copies of the 2K fonts work fine, but I don't want to gobble up 50MB or so with something I have elsewhere on disk. Maybe fc-chache doesn't like NT files (strange, it gets on ok with 98) or worse, maybe it doesn't like ro-files? Any suggestions?
