Smile Mounting usb NTFS volume


Hey everyone, I am trying to mount up my ntfs formated usb harddrive and I am not having any luck. I have followed all of the instructions for mouunt. Man mount shows an ntfs option but it does not seem to be supported in core 5. What do I have to do to mount up this volume from core 5? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Fixed

I was getting the error because I simply did not uninstall the wrong package first. I installed the correct rpm and everything works great. Thanks to all who responded.
