[SOLVED] Where did my NTFS-Disc go in Solaris?

LAN-Dominator.nl · 01-04-2007, 02:04 AM

SO i got 3 HardDrives:

- 1* 250 GB (Sun Solaris 10)
Here is my Operating System, without it i can't work!

- 2* 80 GB (BackUp Disc)
My BackUp Harddrive (i only use it outside Solaris, backup with CD-Rom)

- 3* 30 GB (NTFS Documents + Data)
Use it for important Data and Documents (for school and job). I not only use it on my own PC, ut also on school-computers, where they use Windows XP!

i can only find the 3th in the bios and with Solaris-Setup, but in solaris itself, don't know where to look for it..

Not sure about what you want here ...
Do you want to access the NTFS disk contents, or just see the disk is there ?

i want to acces the data, it's very important stuff for me

That one works well:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mount-ntfs/

Ok thanks, that helps...
But now...

Which Mount-NTFS and MountGUI packages must i download, beacuse the zip is for windows and i can't open the binaries..

Ahhh help me please..

jlliagre · 01-05-2007, 02:06 AM

These aren't packages but just plain binaries.

mountntfs is the program that allows mounting NTFS partitions under Solaris.

How do i use the binarie?

jlliagre · 06-13-2007, 09:52 AM

There is now a simpler solution (partially based on the same open source code).

Install FSWfsmisc and FSWpart:

thanks, it works !!

kebabbert · 08-30-2007, 07:07 AM

Yes, FSWmisc is good. Use "prtpart" and it lists all partitions. Then you can mount the desired partition. man prtpart

It finally works, thanks jlliagre!!

But now i got a new question:

* is it possible to mount the drives automaticly on System-logon/Session-StartUp?
(i can only run the mount-program when i'm su/ROOT)

kebabbert · 09-03-2007, 03:08 PM

Yes you can. Edit /etc/vfstab and the partitions will automatically be mounted.

Here i'll show you my vfstad

(what should be added and HOW?)

Code:

#device		device		mount		FS	fsck	mount	mount
#to mount	to fsck		point		type	pass	at boot	options
#
fd	-	/dev/fd	fd	-	no	-
/proc	-	/proc	proc	-	no	-
/dev/dsk/c0d0s1	-	-	swap	-	no	-
/dev/dsk/c0d0s0	/dev/rdsk/c0d0s0	/	ufs	1	no	-
/dev/dsk/c0d0s7	/dev/rdsk/c0d0s7	/export/home	ufs	2	yes	-
/devices	-	/devices	devfs	-	no	-
sharefs	-	/etc/dfs/sharetab	sharefs	-	no	-
ctfs	-	/system/contract	ctfs	-	no	-
objfs	-	/system/object	objfs	-	no	-
swap	-	/tmp	tmpfs	-	yes	-

jlliagre · 09-04-2007, 12:48 AM

Something like:

Code:

/dev/dsk/c2d1p1	-	/ntfs	ntfs	-	yes	ro

Adjust c2d1p1 to your real controller/disk/partition and don't forget to create the mount directory (/ntfs here).

lolz.. got a problem, i can't log on my solaris anymore...

i can login on shell and start to start the edit:

Code:

# edit /etc/vfstab
16 lines, 6** characters
:

if i typ DEL, it deletes the line that doesn't work, but how do i save and reboot from EDIT?
