    Code:
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
    should work. If not, give me the output of the first command. Thanks.

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

    I got it to work but I think I found another problem. I am not sure If I am doing a few steps right.

    When I do the step that tells me to

    PHP Code:
    sudo fdisk -grep NTFS 
    I get

    PHP Code:
    /dev/hda5            1290        9729    67794268+   7  HPFS/NTFS 
    then I edit my gstab to look like

    PHP Code:
    # /etc/fstab: static file system information.
    #
    # <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
    proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
    /dev/hda1       /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
    /dev/hda5       /media/1290     ntfs-3g    defaults        0       0
    /dev/hdc        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
    /dev/hdd        /media/cdrom1   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0 
    When I try to acess the partition I get this error "Unable to mount the selected volume. - mount: only root can mount /dev/hda5 on /media/1290
    "

    Any help you could provide would be great.

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

    locate the line of your NTFS partition. If they are there, just change them so it looks like that:
    Code:
    Code:
    /dev/<your partition> /media/<mount point> ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.utf8 0 0
    (of course replace <your partition> & <mount point> by your configuration)
    If your partition is not there, you'll have to first create a directory where you would like to mount it :
    Code:
    Code:
    sudo mkdir /media/<the name you want>
    1290 in the fdisk result don't tell you which mount point choose. The mount point could be whatever you want, windows, disk, disk2... But don't forget to create if it don't exist before.

    If you have floppy0 inserted then that's mounted on /dev/ according to your fstab which hides /dev/hdc1. That should explain why the Windows partition "doesn't exist".

    Hey everyone.

    I followed the instructions at the beginning of the thread, everything went fine until I rebooted.
    Then Ubuntu wouldn't load. It loaded up some text based thing, which apparently said (as far as I could tell) that it couldn't load some X Window Manager or something like that. I have NO idea what to do now. Luckily, I kept Windows, so that's what I'm using. I have the ext3 driver installed, so I can edit files on my Ubuntu partition. Please help me out!

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

    Happy_Man, this don't seams to be an ntfs-3g related problem, you should ask for support elsewhere. Thanks.

    Announcement : new release of ntfs-3g :

    http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/f...forum_id=50610

    Change since the last version :
    * new: top request: support old FUSE kernel modules
    * fix: ActiveSync didn't work via Samba 3.0

    This means that now ntfs-3g don't absolutly require the latest fuse module, and this means that
    i'll be able to update again the main channel.
    I'm currently uploading it to the testing channel.
    Please test and report problems, i'll upload it to the main channel in few days if everything goes well.

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

    Hey givre! Thanks a lot for this utility. Works great (at least for the past 10 mins) on Edgy AMD64, SATA HDD with a number of NTFS partitions.

    Haven't tested with removable drives yet.

    But wasn't able to test the latest version, as there is no 64b version available.

    P.S.: Just a suggestion, why do u make people compile their own 64b version of "pmount"? Is it not possible to make an 'amd64' repo with the pmount 64b version (and possibly the NTFS-3G 64b newer versions) in it?

    thank you very much for this great utility.
    I do, however, have a problem.
    I've just decided to switch from Win2k3 to Ubuntu (server install) 10.2
    all worked OK, but my RAID 0 array doesn't mount.
    I can see the two partitions, but am for about 5 hours now... still no luck.


    Motherboard: A7V600 (VIA VT8237 raid controller).
    Any help would be MOST appreciated.
    Array is using NTFS, obviously.
    Here is the output of fdisk -l:
    Disk /dev/sde: 300.0 GB, 300069052416 bytes
    255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 36481 cylinders
    Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
    Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
    /dev/sde1 1 72962 586067233+ 7 HPFS/NTFS

    Disk /dev/sdf: 300.0 GB, 300069052416 bytes
    255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 36481 cylinders
    Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

    Disk /dev/sdf doesn't contain a valid partition table
    ^^
    Now that I think is the problem????

    ANY help would be most appreciated, I've googled for HOURS on end and still have not got any closer to fixing this curse.

    cheers.

    Your problem has nothing to do with ntfs but with finding the raid array. First of install dmraid.
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install dmraid
    Now your array should appear in /dev/mapper, The equivalent of /dev/sde1 is something like /dev/mapper/isw_bbdjfefhjf_HDS72161_RAID. The letters will probably differ. It's the last number that's important.

    isw_bbdjfefhjf_HDS72161_RAID1 is the first partition 2 the second etc. From now on these are the ones you want to use. Don't even touch sde1 and 2 because you might screw everything up. (These are actually the drives and not the array.)

    If you have anymore problems create a new thread or ask me somehow as this has little to do with ntfs.
    Good luck!
