Hallo!
I just installed Aptosid on my netbook and I'm very happy about it!
Just coming from one year experience with Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Debian, Puppy linux...
It's great Aptosid can bring Sid experience to a "dummy" user like me!
So here's the question:
Aptosid mounts ntfs partitions just read-only, but I have a "Dati" (partition partition wich I need to read and write. I made a script wich I called "part8rw.sh".
The script is just:
#!/bin/sh
mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda8 /media/disk1part8
This is taken from Aptosid manual, with some adjustment.
It works allright, but I would like to run the script at boot, so I don' t have to run it from a terminal every time.
Googling around I found that I can put the script inside /etc/init.d/
and then
update-rc.d part8rw.sh defaults
Is this the right to-do for Aptosid? Or is there something better?
Thaks in advance for your answer. |

| Just change your /etc/fstab entry from ntfs to ntfs-3g. |

| You'll have to drop the ",ro" (read-only) part of the mount options as well. |

Try this
Code:
UUID=6DA8D945315FE3B6 /media/disk1part8 ntfs-3g defaults,auto,users,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 0
REBOOT
Edit - change the locale= to match yours |

And since
Code:
towo:Defiant> ls -ld /sbin/mount.ntfs
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Okt 28 00:34 /sbin/mount.ntfs -> mount.ntfs-3g
it doesn't matter, if there is ntfs or ntfs-3g in the fstab. |
