[xeckthor]

hello community!!!

i'm learning how to use linux and i was wondering if someone could help me:

here is the cuestion (sorry but i'm new):

how can i install a program that i get from the internet? and/or how can write on the other partitions that i have on my hd?

Compiling Software (http://www.justlinux.com/nhf/Software/Compiling_Software.html)

As for the others partition in your hd, are they FAT32, NTFS?

the partitions are ntfs and i'm working with kde

You will be able to mount your NTFS partition as read-only, read-write is not safe.

Making some searches in this forum for "mount ntfs" should be enough.
