Hi there! I too was having the same problems however I was able to resolve them with the following steps.
First start with the steps here
NTFS-3g Fedora 6 HOW-TO
From here I had to also set SELinux to "permissive"
And here is what my /etc/FStab line looks like
Code:
/dev/sdb5 /mnt/Backup ntfs-3g rw,defaults,umask=0000 0 0
The above was taken from the reply salvatruco made showing his fstab however I modified the /dev/**** and /mnt/**** to reflect my own setup.
I no longer get a mounting or umounting error on startup or shut down and it also appears on my desktop as a mounted drive available to be accessed by my user account with read / write.
If you have any specific questions about anything I did in the above let me know and I will try to break down anything I can.
Hope this helps solve your troubles. This one has been a pain in my a** for a long time now.
Cheer, Dan
