[SGVLUG] NTFS drive

[Ron Quan]

Please post the line(s) that you added and the drive/partitions information.

To troubleshoot:
1) Make sure you have created the directory that you wish to mount the
NTFS partition to

2) Try running the "mount" command manually on the ntfs line to see if
your line generates errors

Be aware that writing to NTFS partitions, even in kernel 2.6, is not
recommended. I would mount as read-only. Please correct me if my
understanding is outdated?

Here's a concise page regarding fstab.
