I am having difficulty getting some NTFS partitions to mount correctly. One, my Windows 8.1 system partition, refuses to mount with this error:
Quote:
p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; } An error occurred while accessing '8.1', the system responded: The requested operation has failed: Error mounting /dev/sda7 at /run/media/jared/8.1: Command-line `mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1996,gid=100,dmask=0077,fmask=0177" "/dev/sda7" "/run/media/jared/8.1"' exited with non-zero exit status 14: Windows is hibernated, refused to mount. Failed to mount '/dev/sda7': Operation not permitted The NTFS partition is in an unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown Windows fully (no hibernation or fast restarting), or mount the volume read-only with the 'ro' mount option.
When I first set this installation up last month, I had to take the 8.1 partition out of fstab. With another NTFS partition, in which I share files beyond the FAT32 4 GB limit, I cannot write to it, even after changing the mount point's folder permissions in the Dolphin properties dialog box to R & W for Owner, Group, and Others and adding rw to its fstab. My fstab file looks like this:
Any pointers to getting these partitions to cooperate would be appreciated. My issues are on an openSUSE 13.1 installation without any modified kernels or custom low level installation settings.
this is what i use , a very basic entry
you would need to become root to write to it .
But that is no problem a pop up will pop-up and ask for the root password
By default Windows 8 is set to hibernate aka fast-boot at shutdown. I do not have W8 so I can not confirm what information I found on the internet. As the warning message states you can mount the partition read only without doing anything. Otherwise you will need to disable fast-boot. Once you reboot back into linux you should be able to mount your W8 partition.
