FreeBSD can (rw).. just mount -t ntfs.. you may have to rebuild the kernel 
with options NTFS  (unless you are running FreeBSD 5.0)

For Linux, you would have to recompile the kernel... I've seen the module 
there, but if I remember correctly, rw (read + write) support is highly 
developmental... not sure if it would work with Win2K+ NTFS partitions.

OR, you could try booting with the windows cd and choose repair mode, and find 
your way around..
