'owner' Jumps Back To Root

I start Nautilus in root mode by using: "su -" and try to edit the permissions of my C-drive (NTFS) which is mounted in /Windows/C.

Unfortunately, when I try to set the owner to myself, it immediately jumps back to root.

How do I give myself ownership of my drive?

The default that is set in place for NTFS during installation is read-only. You have to use the ntfs-3g system to mount NTFS to get write access. Here's full information on that: http://www.swerdna.net.au/linhowtontfs.html

But if you just want write access quickly you can install the rpm for "ntfs-config" and use it to switch world-writable access on.

After following that instructions and making myself owner by setting the 'guid=1000' option, it worked

Solved.
