ntfs-3g Description

An open source ntfs driver which offers read-write support for NTFS hard drives. ntfs-3g driver is an open source, GPL licensed, third generation Linux NTFS driver for 32-bit, little-endian architectures which was implemented by the Linux-NTFS project. It provides full read-write access to NTFS, excluding access to encrypted files, writing compressed files, changing file ownership, access right. Technically it's based on and a major improvement to the third generation Linux NTFS driver, ntfsmount. The improvements includes functionality, quality and performance enhancements. Installation: Make sure you have the basic Linux development tools and FUSE is correctly installed on your computer then type: ./configure make make install # or 'sudo make install' if you aren't root. Usage: If there was no error during installation then you can mount NTFS volumes for read-write access (unmount them if they were already mounted by another NTFS driver.) ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows If you want to give full access for all users, ignore permission related driver messages, and make national characters visible then use (drop or replace the below hu_HU.utf8 with the appropriate setting, and also the device and mount points, if needed). ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows -o silent,umask=0,locale=hu_HU.utf8 Please see the ntfs-3g manual page for more options and examples. You can also make NTFS to be mounted during boot by ensuring that the FUSE kernel module is automatically loaded and by putting the below line into /etc/fstab /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs-3g silent,umask=0,locale=hu_HU.utf8 0 0 Requirements: · Filesystem in Userspace What's New in This Release: · Built-in, transparent UTF-8 conversion support was added. This solves problems with hidden and inaccessible filenames having national characters. · Support for getting or setting the file creation timestamp on Mac OS X was added. · A problem was fixed in which an extended attribute got corrupted if the new attribute size was smaller than the original size. · A memory leak when an extended attribute or alternate data stream couldn't be opened was fixed. · An error is reported if a filename cannot be listed while reading a directory.
