Not Able to Access NTFS as normal user
Hello It seems that I am not able to access the NTFS partitions using normal user (but able to read them using root),no matter what I do which is weird.
Here's my /etc/fstab Code:
/dev/hda6 swap swap defaults 0 0 I'm using the 2.6.13 kernel and the NTFS support is built-in. I've also checked google and LQ and nothing seemed to work. :( All help appreciated, thanks. |
Try this:
Code:
/dev/sda1 /g ntfs nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0 |
Sorry it took me so long to reply, just came home.
I tried adding it and it did not work :( I keep getting "Permission is Denied" while trying to 'ls /g' |

Yup, gives me "unable to load nls charset utf8" error though...Google didn't help me on that one...Is that a kernel module maybe? I saw some stuff on it and kernels...Though I don't think it could be it.

I'll be honest. I don't know that much about /etc/fstab.
I gave you that mounting advice because it worked for me (I copied and pasted it out of the Ubuntu Guide). Maybe this might help, though? http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html |
Ah I got it to work. Just took out the "nls=utf8" part and added "ro" in front of "umask", reboot, and voila! It works. Thanks a bunch. :)
