Error when trying to add files in NTFS filesystem

[Elias Chrysoheris]

Dear sirs,

I'm new to mercurial. I usually write code in assembly language for Texas Instruments' microcontroller MSP430. The last days one friend of mine told me about mercurial as a great version control system, so I decided to give it a try.

I had a program in a partition in openSUSE Linux 11.1. The partition is formated as NTFS (the partition with the data, not the operating system's partition). I entered the directory that my program lies and started the repository. I send you an attachment having the commands I issued and the 
response of each command. Perhaps it is a matter of configuration that I'm doing wrong.
Please note that when I copy the whole directory (using cp -R ....) and do the same things there, no error appears. Everything is fine.

If you need any other information from me please let me know.

Thank you in advance

Yours sincerely
Elias
