SOLVED, SORRY


First, thanks for reading this.

I'm dual booting XP and SW on a Sata disk..
The partitions of that disk are (in XP):
C:\ for Windows
D:\ for files
And the linux partitions (Swap and Ext3)...

I have an IDE disk with files too (Music, videos, etc..)
I can see the files in the C and D drives, but i can not access the IDE partition (I have only one in that disk) (I'm using SW NOW, not XP)


This is the original fstab: (when i installed SW)
/dev/sda6 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sda7 / ext3 defaults 1 1
/dev/sda1 /ntfc-c ntfs-3g umask=000 1 0
/dev/sda5 /ntfc-d vfat defaults 1 0
#/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,owner,ro 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0

This is the one I am using now. With this i can acces C & D:
/dev/sda6 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sda7 / ext3 defaults 1 1
/dev/sda1 /ntfc-c ntfs-3g umask=000 1 0
/dev/sda5 /ntfc-d ntfs-3g umask=000 1 0
/dev/hda5 /ntfc-e ntfs-3g umask=000 1 0
#/dev/sda5 /ntfc-d vfat defaults 1 0
#/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,owner,ro 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0

/dev/sda1 /mnt/windows ntfs-3g defaults 0 0


HDA5 was added only to test... is not working ^^


I have also tryed with:

ntfs-3g /dev/hda5 /mnt/win
ntfs-3g-mount: failed to access mountpoint /mnt/win: No such file or directory


Using fdisk -l

EDIT:

I only needed to do this:
mkdir /mnt/ntfs
mount -t ntfs /dev/hda5 /mnt/ntfs


Sorry for creating this thread

You are much better off using ntfs-3g like this: mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hda5 /mnt/ntfs

Thanks for your comment..
Why is that way better?
Every time i reboot the PC I have to do that, so, how can i avoid retyping it?

And another question:
I've read that writing in NTFS partitions from Linux is unsafe because it may corrupt the partition data. Is that true with this version of Slackware? (12.2)

If you use ntfs-3g package then it could as be safe for use. I never had problems till date. (Touch wood).

Thanks!
And what should I do to make that every time the OS loads that partition is mounted?

Edit the fstab file as super user and add the entry there.
But make sure you install the ntfs-3g package before.
