title: Unable to install ntfs-fuse on RHEL 5.2, missing dependency error
body: <p>I have a rhel 5.2 machine and I am trying to mount a ntfs file system harddisk. I know that we need ntfs and fuse rpms to mount it. By installing those rpms I mounted it in my rhel 5.4 machine. But in 5.2 I followed the same steps but failed to mount. Then after googling I found that 5.2 kernel doesn't support or have fuse kernel by default and then I followed <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/145209/mounting-ntfs-filesystem-on-centos-5-2">this link</a>.</p>
  
  <p>Below is the output after doing the steps said in this link.</p>
