I am completely unable to mount NTFS. It continues to tell me that it is an unknown filesystem. It is compiled into the kernel, so I am not sure what's going on here...

root@server colosus # mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb/
mount: unknown filesystem type 'ntfs'
root@server colosus # grep NTFS /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_NTFS_FS=y
# CONFIG_NTFS_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_NTFS_RW=y


Any ideas?

well first of all i don't think i'd recommend having read and write turned on as the writing is practiaclly non existant, you can only change the contents of the file without changing the file size, I would turn that off whether or not that's what causing the problem.

CONFIG_NTFS_FS=y
# CONFIG_NTFS_DEBUG is not set
# CONFIG_NTFS_RW is not set

works just fine for me

also, what kernel are you using?
