[opensuse-factory] ntfs mount problems..
Hi, As my XP was unusable, i installed windows 7 beta, to find out if it was any good. After this, opensuse was ofcourse only available with the installation disk: repair option: boot installed system... Here i tried to mount the windows active partition, to get it into the grub bootmenu. But whatever i tried: not possible to mount, not even with root. Dolphin came up with: http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#unprivileged, and i tried the suggested: chown root $(which ntfs-3g) chmod 4755 $(which ntfs-3g) set the etc-fstab to: /windows/C ntfs-3g default,locale=nl_NL.UTF-8 0 0 nothing seems to work. on both 11.1 and 11.2, i get the same: not able to mount C and or D ntfs partitions... I do not understand why there are allways troubles to get windows ntfs partitions mounted. There is realy no need for that, the drivers work perfect. Allways changing the ways to get things fixed make me very tired.. :( -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball, aka M9.

I've never had a trouble with ntfs-config. Have you tried it? -- S pozdravom / Best regards, Rasto -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I've never had a trouble with ntfs-config. Have you tried it?
I just installed it, thx for the tip. I have trouble now to keep grub stick: it only works once, and then only windows 7 boots, no bootmenu. Next to this, the 'boot installed os' option has difficulties to choose the right kernel. This way not all needed modules are loaded. I need to fix that first. -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball (M9.) (Now or never...)

(seems to be fixed now..(cross fingers behind back..):) With the proper modules loaded, ntfs-partitions get mounted by ntfs-config.... (but i still do not understand why the correct fstab entry does not work anymore..) -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball (M9.) (Now or never...)
