Viewing NTFS Mnt
 
I just got done editing the kernel config and cp it to boot and what not. I even checked Conrtol Center under KDE > Linux Kernel > File Systems and it has a check at NTFS file system ready only. And im still getting a error did mkdir now trying to mount it and i get not support:
[root@localhost root]# mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/win
mount: fs type ntfs not supported by kernel

Which is bull i just enabled the support and restarted lol nothing is working can someone help me please :) Ty

how did you enable support? if you compiled it as a module then run "modprobe ntfs" first.

Im not using SuSe im using RH 9.0 kernel 2.4.20.6 i believe

acid_kewpie 10-09-2004 10:10 AM

ok, without wishing to sound condescending... you only "believe" it's 2.4.20? in that case i'd question how you enabled the ntfs support in the first place. you would need to recompile the kernel to get ntfs support if it's not already compiled as a module (i.e. the modprobe command gave an error)

i also never mentioned anythign about SuSe.... :confused: you did reply to the right thread yeah?

Ive already recompiled the kernel copied the new files to boot and what not. Im running rh9 and i tried doing that command nothing happends onl error. Ive enabled ntfs read only support just i cant mnt =\

I use captive-ntfs. It's GREAT - it actually uses ntfs.sys and the windows kernel to run NTFS. So you're hijacking their own code for read and *write* support. Look into it, highly reccomended and an easy install. Just have your kernel source code handy :)
