Partition Magic 8.0

A few days ago I changed my filesystem from NTFS to FAT32 so I could see these drive from my Linux partition. Is there a way to undo this process without having to convert it back to NTFS?

Wait, so you converted from NTFS to FAT32, now you want to go back to NTFS? You can't "undo" it. You will have to go through the filesystem conversion process.

when i used redhat 8 it didn't have reliable NTFS support--a RPM allowed me to mount and read NTFS partitions, but not write to them. IIRC mandrake 9 had better support for NTFS.
