+<caution>
+ <title>
+ Disable Windows <function>fast reboot</function> feature!
+ </title>
+ <para>
+ Newer versions of Windows use a strategy of suspending some system processes to disk to speed startup times. Modifying a filesystem in this state can corrupt or damage the data, so the linux NTFS drivers will not mount it. If the filesystem were to be mounted, the cached view if the files may differ from the changes you made in Fedora, with the most likely result of loosing your changes - or worse.

+ <para>
+ Before attempting any operation on an NTFS volume from Fedora, make sure you have disabled this feature in Windows.
