mount: unknown filesystem type 'ntfs'
Help please!!!
I dont know anything about linux and just been assigned to amount a drive to it. here's what i did so far:
Version of Linux using Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.3 (Tikanga)
[root]# mount -t auto /dev/sdb1 /tmp/archive
mount: unknown filesystem type 'ntfs'
when checking the /proc/filesystems, i noticed that 'ntfs' is not listed there, several forum suggested i try running 'modprobe ntfs'. If that is not found, you'll need a kernel with ntfs support. i'm so lost, where to i get the modprobe ntfs, can someone please help, would be great if you can provide steps by steps instructions.
thank you so much!
