    Thank you givre,
    I rebooted, and I see a '189.9 GB Volume' but when I try to open it, it says:

    mount: only root can mount

    Any ideas?

    I get to step 3 and run into problems.
    The terminal indicates a GnomeUI warning. It reads:
    paul@paul-desktop:~$ sudo dpkg -i ntfs-3g_20070714-BETA-1_i 386.deb
    Selecting previously deselected package ntfs-3g.
    (Reading database ... 89196 files and directories currently installed.)

    ps. I'm a newbie and in uncharted waters.

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

    Ok,lot's of things this morning.

    @domino & Poka64 : Thank you so much to take the time to test it .
    Unfortunatly, that's not really the kind of error i expected. Normally, pmount mount device in /media/device, so check first your media directory, and report what you have in it.
    A second test would be to to set a label which we are sure to be empty:
    Code:
    sudo mkdir /media/myusbdisk
    pmount /dev/sd* myusbdisk
    I could add the nonempty option to pmount but we have to be sure that ntfs-3g is wrong, because this could be quite dangerouse.
    Thanks agein, that's quite hard to test something when you don't have the hardware for 8)

    @jjtechno & paulji: That's a known false alert. If gedit run, don't worry.

    @a_swan89 : Let see your /etc/fstab and your /etc/mtab

    @bitwise : external USB drive are a pain, normaly it should be mount at startup but the device name could change. We are in the process to have a better solution, but this not really ready yet. So for the moment be sure that the name of your usb device didn't change:
    Code:
    sudo fdsik -l
    and compare it to what you have in /etc/fstab.
    If it's the same, try to mount it with
    Code:
    sudo mount /dev/sdb1
    and past here the possible error.
    if they are not the same, wait a bit
    For the moment, you can also mount it with
    Code:
    sudo ntfs-3g /dev/<your device give by fdisk> /media/<your mount point> -o silent,umask=0,locale=en_US.utf8

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

    ok, that makes sense now. I was under th impression that pmount would automount, auto-create the directory in /media, and create the link on the desktop. I was swrong.

    I already had the /media/External directory so all I had to to was append the pmount command with "External". Thanks for the tip.

    user@linux:~$ pmount /dev/sda1 External
    Filesystem: 'udf'
    Filesystem: 'udf'
    Filesystem: 'iso9660'
    Filesystem: 'iso9660'
    Filesystem: 'vfat'
    Filesystem: 'vfat'
    Filesystem: 'ntfs-3g'

    It mounted correctly but i had to browse to the /media/External directory in order to be able to get full r/w access the ext drive.

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

    No you was right, normally pmount will do all that automaticly (create directory...) so i didn't understand why it's work with ntfs but not with ntfs-3g. Perhaps i forget some option. I'm at work right now, so i'll do that tonight. Thanks.

    P.S: did you check that you have something in /media which could be the reason why ntfs-3g stuck.
    gnome-volume-manager don't pass option to pmount, so we have to be sure that just pmount /dev/sd* work so all will be automatic (plug & play )

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

    No worries. It's like you get paid for doing what you do :).

    P.S: did you check that you have something in /media which could be the reason why ntfs-3g stuck.
    Code:
    ~$ dir /media
    cdrom  cdrom0  FAT32  hda1  hda2  hdc5  hdc6  hdc7  macdisk  Vista  External  WinXP
    I deleted the "External" directory in the /media folder and re-ran testa.

    Test 1:
    Code:
    ~$ pmount /dev/sda1
    Filesystem: 'udf'
    Filesystem: 'udf'
    Filesystem: 'iso9660'
    Filesystem: 'iso9660'
    Filesystem: 'vfat'
    Filesystem: 'vfat'
    Filesystem: 'ntfs-3g'
    Filesystem: 'ntfs-3g'
    Filesystem: 'ntfs'  <-- stopped here
    Test 1 mounted with ntfs driver (no write support).

    Test 2:
    Code:
    :~$ pmount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1
    Filesystem: 'ntfs-3g'
    fusermount: mountpoint is not empty
    fusermount: if you are sure this is safe, use the 'nonempty' mount option
    fuse_mount failed.
    Unmounting /dev/sda1 (External)
    Test 3:
    Code:
    ~$ sudo mkdir /media/External
    ~$ pmount /dev/sda1 External
    Filesystem: 'udf'
    Filesystem: 'udf'
    Filesystem: 'iso9660'
    Filesystem: 'iso9660'
    Filesystem: 'vfat'
    Filesystem: 'vfat'
    Filesystem: 'ntfs-3g'
    Test 3 mounts but doesn't place the drive icon on the desktop. As I posted earlier, i needed to browse to the /media directory go gain access to the drive.
