For the repo, cabspace is ok, it's just a bit too much slow (i mean terribly slow :cool: ). And the main page is still there http://givre.cabspace.com/
mlind, right didn't notice it, i'll add it in the following release.

26 august 2006 :
* New version of ntfs-3g-nautilus-tools, 0.10 :
- should be able to manage every ntfs device now (not only the usb one). need some test
That's great! Okay, I haven't restarted yet because I have somethings to do on this linux box.
So this is how I want to do to ALL drives:
1. after reboot
2. automount ntfs driver (read only) after entering Windows Manager
3. use script to mount drives using ntfs-3g driver if I need write access to any ntfs partitions or drives.
I'm assuming this is now possible?

thx for great howto:cool:
Re: HOWTO: NTFS with read/write support using ntfs-3g (easy method)
ok... I need a little help.
I don't have Windows on my box any longer, and I have a NTFS volume that I don't have enough room to export the data files from my ntfs system so I can convert that as well... and I'm getting this error when executing a mount -a (and yes, I've restarted the system a couple of times:
Code:
root@mediapc:/home/sf# mount -a
Couldn't mount device '/dev/sda1': Operation not supported
Windows did not shut down properly. Try to mount volume in windows, shut down and try again.
Mount failed.
I downloaded the Ultimate Boot CD (based on comments above) to try and repair the NTFS volume - since I don't have windows xp installed on this box any longer... no dice - couldn't figure out which app I needed to run to fix it... so I tried going into repair console mode on the windows xp install cd... ran chkdsk against the volume and got a message back that the volume had some errors... next time I ran chkdsk against it, no more error's...
Just trying to figure out my options at this point...
any idea's?
Re: HOWTO: NTFS with read/write support using ntfs-3g (easy method)
At first I thought it worked. most of my drives are mounted (yeey!) I'm a newb with linux and might have done something terribly wrong.
what i done before:
adding the partitions to pmount.allow
make the directories in /media/
sudo addgroup ntfs
sudo adduser username ntfs
change my fstab partitions and /media/-directories accoringly to:
Code:
/dev/hda1 /media/windows ntfs-fuse auto,group=ntfs,umask=007 0 0
then later i discovered this method and followed steps 1-3 ok all drives but one appeared on my desktop and were writable.
one of my drives gets unmounted, and more worrying: 'disks-admin' consequently quits 'unexpectedly'. :-k
what did i do wrong?
on ' sudo umount -a' i got:
Code:
umount: /home: device is busy
umount: /dev: device is busy
umount: /var/run: device is busy
umount: /: device is busy
'sudo mount -a':
Code:
fusermount: mountpoint is not empty
fusermount: if you are sure this is safe, use the 'nonempty' mount option
fuse_mount failed.
Unmounting /dev/sda1 (pub.ftp)
Failed to startup volume: Invalid argument
Couldn't mount device '/dev/hdc2': Invalid argument
Mount failed.

Please use the code tag, it makes easier to read...
Re: HOWTO: NTFS with read/write support using ntfs-3g (easy method)
I hava an extern usbdisc, and tried ntfs-3g-nautilus-tools. But I got error trying to mount it with the script:"Error: device /dev/sdb1 is not mounted, Error: invalid file system name 'ntfs-3g'". Anybody got a clue?
Re: HOWTO: NTFS with read/write support using ntfs-3g (easy method)
Hmm, do you have successfully installed ntfs-3g package and dependancies ?
Do you add fuse to modules ?
and modprobe fuse ?
Re: HOWTO: NTFS with read/write support using ntfs-3g (easy method)
yes, ntfs-3g succesfully installed
fuse is at the bottom of the modules list
then i ran modprobe fuse
what worries me most is the 'disk'-application in gnome that crashes.

I think you have rebooted you computer ?
If not, try it.
If yes... hmm I don't know.
Do you have updated with apt-get update ??
