    Re: HOWTO: NTFS with read/write support using ntfs-3g (easy method)

    Okay here is my situation. I have 3 hard drives. The first hard drive is a 250gb SATA which has Ubuntu installed and is the primary (sda). The second is
    another 250gb SATA drive (sdb), the third is a 200GB (sdc1) external SATA to USB enclosure. I dont care about the 2nd drive (sdb). The problem being that the external enclosure is a NTFS. I can not change the format due to have to share with Windows. And I know FAT would be easier but many files are 8gb or larger. After a fresh install of Edgy the external drive automatically mounted and placed an icon on the desktop. I am able to read the drive. I have tried the tutorial here but when rebooted the drive disappears. Here is my fstab:

    # /etc/fstab: static file system information.
    #
    # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
    proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
    # /dev/sda1
    UUID=5d0fb92a-ec27-411b-8ea5-a4ff26081f3b / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
    # /dev/sda5
    UUID=c0b3ae5b-3690-411a-ade4-93ccd004f5ab none swap sw 0 0
    /dev/hdb /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
    /dev/hda /media/cdrom1 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
    dev/sdc1 /media/Data ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.utf8 0 0

    also here is my fdisk output:

    Disk /dev/sdc: 203.9 GB, 203928109056 bytes
    64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 194481 cylinders
    Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes

    Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
    /dev/sdc1 * 1 194481 199148528 7 HPFS/NTFS

    Disk /dev/sdd: 1015 MB, 1015808000 bytes
    32 heads, 63 sectors/track, 984 cylinders
    Units = cylinders of 2016 * 512 = 1032192 bytes

    Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
    /dev/sdd1 * 1 984 991747+ b W95 FAT32

    sdd1 is just a flash memory device and already works.

    I realized my problem duhh.. my fstab was wrong in two ways on the last line. it should read:
    /dev/sdc without the 1

    I am confused. How do I remount my windows ntfs partition (hda1) so it's accessable on my desktop?

    I just tried to mount my NTFS hda1 and got the following error:

    Code:
    matt@matt-laptop:~$ sudo mount /dev/hda1
    Failed to mount '/dev/hda1': Operation not supported
    Mount is denied because the NTFS journal file is unclean. Choices are:
     A) Shutdown Windows properly.
     B) Click the 'Safely Remove Hardware' icon in the Windows taskbar
        notification area before disconnecting the device.
     C) Use 'Eject' from Windows Explorer to safely remove the device.
     D) If you ran chkdsk previously then boot Windows again which will
        automatically initialize the journal.
     E) Run 'ntfsfix' on Linux which will reset the NTFS journal.
     F) Mount the volume read-only by using the 'ro' mount option.
    I have restarted multiple times, how do I fix this problem?

    Edit:

    I booted into M$, did a little dance, then returned to the safety of Ubuntu, and I can now access the NTFS drive AND write to it

    Thanks for the great tut guys!

    Hello guys, sorry for the delay.

    spamzilla, great

    Actionhank, ok, you didn't have to install fuse 2.6 to use ntfs-3g from my repo. Just using the one from the repo should be enough. Also, did you compile your own kernel ?

    mooglie, you are the third user to report this problem. i have no clue why it's happens. You'll have to live with it for the moment.

    robio376, read the COMMON PROBLEM section.

    slyguyr3, 1) no idea
    2) what give you :
    Code:
    sudo umount /dev/hdb1
    sudo mount /dev/hdb1

    Following along from the beginning, in Step 2 (Installation) did this:
    Code:
    $ wget http://givre.cabspace.com/ubuntu/givre_key.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -
    --14:44:17--  http://givre.cabspace.com/ubuntu/givre_key.asc
               => `-'
    Resolving givre.cabspace.com... failed: Name or service not known.
    gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
    the similar line from flomertens.keo.in appeared to succeed.
    Thought you'd want to know...

    Re: HOWTO: NTFS with read/write support using ntfs-3g (easy method)

    Thanks for the quick reply!

    Did the rest of the install, did the restart, created a file on the -3g filesystem, ran upstairs to the XP box, edited it, saved it, ran back downstairs, observed that the upstairs change had, in fact, been saved correctly.

    So - resounding success from all appearances here.
    Thanks !!!

    ( of course I'm still left with the usual *ix vs XP line-ending differences when trying to do cross-platform stuff, but I've come to expect that... the ".txt" file I created here with gedit in Edgy (with a newline) displayed with a square in XP's NotePad. I understand this is *not* an ntfs-3g issue. It's just amusing that I've seen and solved (in various ways) this issue for more than 15 years, and it's still with us. )

    ( I don't expect it'll be any issue except when trying to cross platforms with text mode applications. )

    Thanks again for the work, the results, and the support !
