 |
|
Hi when i try to do 'mount -t ntfs /dev/hda5 /mnt/win_d' system hangs and i can't kill mount.
My partitions are:
| Code: | Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 1 383 3076416 12 Compaq diagnostics
/dev/hda2 * 384 2310 15478627+ c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/hda3 2311 8488 49624785 f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/hda4 8489 9733 10000462+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda5 2311 5515 25744131 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/hda6 5516 8430 23414706 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/hda7 8431 8488 465853+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris |
I compiled the kernel using this conf file http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Acer_Aspire_5024/kernel_configuration.
My system is gentoo 2006.1 AMD 64 (acer aspire 5024), but i was previously using ubuntu and everything was allright then.

I would recommend you use the latest ntfs-3g driver. You won't find it in the kernel because it's a userspace driver ( with full read/write access ). It's been working flawlessly for months on my PC's.
If you wanna try it out, add these lines to your /etc/portage/package.keywords file:
sys-fs/ntfs3g
sys-fs/fuse
and then emerge ntfs-3g.
you can mount your drives with
mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/my_partition /mnt/my_folder
Just as a warning, make sure all your data is backed up, because any Cross-OS filesystem access is risky.  |
