[opensuse] Ntfs external hard disk mount problem in 2008 (for me)
I have an external hard disk (e-hd) ntfs disk 500gb, I would keep ntfs file system but I have problem to write it with opensuse 11. Initially opensuse mount the e-hd with read permission, I used the GUI ntfs-config to enable the write access. As result i obtained that now user can not mount the e-hd (it require root privilegges ). I have edited fstab as followed reported but without any effects (it require root privilegges ). well my question is how I can set a user mount with write permission for my ntfs external disk Thanks #Highlighted # line added by ntfs-config /dev/sdc1 /media/ebox ntfs-3g defaults,nosuid,nodev,locale=it_IT.UTF-8,force 0 0 # line added by me /dev/sdc1 /media/ebox ntfs-3g auto,defaults,rw,users,locale=it_IT.UTF-8 0 0 #my fstab proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0 /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_Maxtor_6L250R0_L50YRVAH-part5 / ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 1 /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_Maxtor_6L250R0_L50YRVAH-part6 /home ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/sdc1 /media/ebox ntfs-3g defaults,nosuid,nodev,locale=it_IT.UTF-8,force 0 0 /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_Maxtor_6Y160P0_Y461FP9E-part5 /windows/C ntfs-3g defaults,rw,users,locale=it_IT.UTF-8 0 0 /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_Maxtor_6Y160P0_Y461FP9E-part2 /windows/D vfat users,gid=users,umask=0002,utf8=true 0 0 /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_Maxtor_6L250R0_L50YRVAH-part8 /windows/E vfat users,gid=users,umask=0002,utf8=true 0 0 /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_Maxtor_6L250R0_L50YRVAH-part7 swap swap defaults 0 0 debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs noauto 0 0 /sys/bus/usb/drivers /proc/bus/usb usbfs devmode=664,devgid=110 0 0 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Where do you have those two lines? You can only have one in fstab. And in the fstab below I only see this:
#my fstab
/dev/sdc1 /media/ebox ntfs-3g defaults,nosuid,nodev,locale=it_IT.UTF-8,force 0 0
I assume that you know you have to use manual mount for this to work. You could have a look at "/etc/auto.master" and "/etc/auto.misc".

I know that by cdl (mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sd?? /mount-point) is possible work around the problem however this operation is slow and boring. my question is is possible have ntfs automount in opensuse ??.

Well, you could fill a bugzilla. The desktop should do it automatically. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
