Mounting A NTFS Share

I know this is pretty common w/ dual boot PC's but I have never seen anyone do this in Debian. How difficult would it be for me to mount a NTFS share on Debian as read/write?

Code:

cwilliams@bishop:~$ sudo fdisk -l

Password:



Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes



  Device Boot      Start        End      Blocks  Id  System

/dev/sda1  *          1      10199    81923436    7  HPFS/NTFS

/dev/sda2          10200      10321      979965  82  Linux swap / Solaris

/dev/sda3          10322      18248    63673627+  83  Linux

not hard if you don't mind taking the chance of corruption... NTFS Support although it's getting better in Linux still isn't perfect.

Worked fine. I had no problems.

Code:

mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /media/ntfs

Use ntfs-3g - "safe" NTFS writes.

i would recommend ntfs-3g this is very simple and nice tools if you want to know how to use check here

hope this helps
