    I get this when I try
    Code:
    pkb@LinuxBox:~$ sudo dpkg -i libfuse2_*.deb fuse-utils_*.deb ntfsprogs_*.deb libntfs8_*.deb

    Re: HOWTO: Mount NTFS volumes with write support

    @jdackle:

    Just to clearify something before I work on this again.

    The output of my fstab you are refuring to was before I reinstalled. After reinstalling I was able to read through "disk".

    I will try to change fstab again and see if that is all it takes to get read and write working.

    Thanks. I'll post any results.

    @ morequarky:
    Erm... I hadn't even looked at that post of yours (the one with the output from your fstab)!

    I was just replying to this one:

    I reinstalled Breezy. After installing hda1 is automatically on my desktop. But when I click on it, it says I can't access it. I go to "System - Administration - Disks" in disk I look at the hda1 (the ntfs partition). There is a browse button. I click it and it allows me to browse windows no problem. I can't "write" to it, but I will work on that later.

    I am going to try to stay away from Dapper until it is finished. Breezy is fine with me.
    Cheers!

    Re: HOWTO: Mount NTFS volumes with write support

    @pkbarber: I don't know what you are expecting, but your configuration files are a mess, so of course you can't access the disk.

    First of all, your fstab includes no mention of mounting a ntfs partition. Also, it mounts hdc as a cdrom drive, which it isn't (just look at the fdisk output).

    I don't know which tutorial you were following, but sure wasn't this one.

    Sorry, but this isn't a general fstab/mountig/fdisk/linux support thread. It's okay to ask for help, but be sure you actually *read* the tutorial and *understand* what you are doing.

    ---

    I think that maybe I should include a notice that people that don't understand the limits and extents of the ntfsprogs package, should stay away from this guide. It wasn't intended for every linux newbee to access NTFS partitions with write privileges with full functionality, since ntfsprogs is still in testing and far from being completely compatible with this filesystem. Be sure to read the ntfsprogs page for complete details of it's current development stage.

    But, if i mount the windows ntfs partition manually with read access like this:

    Code:
    mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1/ -t ntfs
    It works fine, but obviously I only have read access in this way.

    All the steps were made with root privileges.
    Any idea about this?

    @LKRaider
    I will immeditatly conceed im a newb. However I followed the tutorial to the T, allowing for user specific commands. I was having system wide issues with 5.10: networking problems as well as other driver issues. I have since switched to the beta of drake to see if i could solve some of these probs. Some of the issues have been resolved but not all of them. Bottom line, I still dont have access to my master hd. Even prior to attempting to mount the ntfs drive in drake there are errors in my fstab file. I have to assume that with a clean install of both OSs with persisting problems that there is a problem with the hardware. ie jumpers, bios settings, etc.

    Re: HOWTO: Mount NTFS volumes with write support

    Big note:

    If you are a Dapper user and have problems with this command in step 5:

    bash:~$ sudo rm /sbin/mount.ntfs-fuse && sudo ln /usr/bin/ntfsmount /sbin/mount.ntfs-fuse
    ...please go back to the Breezy section and make sure you have *all* these packages installed:

    libntfs8
    ntfsprogs
    libfuse2
    fuse-utils

    I upgraded to Dapper from Breezy and I'm not sure how, but I was missing a couple of those packages. I installed them from Synaptic and everything worked.

    Dearhell: Don't worry about the 'busy device' warning, it is just saying it won't unmount the root filesystem. Check the directory where you pointed to mount the ntfs partition, it should be there and working.

    Re: HOWTO: Mount NTFS volumes with write support

    I've tried following this tutorial and others for mounting NTFS, and while I can read the NTFS partition on my hard drive, I can't write to it. The tutorial in ubuntuguide.org lets me read the NTFS partition, but when I try to configure /etc/fstab according to the HOWTO in this thread, I'm not able to read or write to the partition, as the icon to the NTFS partition is gone, preventing me from accessing it. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

    Sorry for the seemingly dumb question
