stumped on mounting ntfs

JockVSJock · 01-10-2006, 07:57 PM

I'm getting ready to set my laptop up for ndis wrapper to get my wireless card working under Linux.

I still have XP on a partition and I'm currently not able to mount it.

-if I type mount, it shows mounted

Code:

cmmiller@probot:~$ mount
/dev/hda3 on / type ext3 (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
/dev/hda1 on /ntfs-c type ntfs (ro,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)

fstab shows an entry but I'm not sure it is correct

Code:

cmmiller@probot:~$ cat /etc/fstab
/dev/hda2        swap             swap        defaults         0   0
/dev/hda3        /                ext3        defaults         1   1
/dev/hda1        /ntfs-c          ntfs        users,ro         1   0

# mount -t iso9660 /dev/dvd /mnt/dvd-rw
/dev/dvd         /mnt/dvd-rw      auto        noauto,owner,ro  0   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

If I try to enter the directory under /mnt, I don't show anything.

What am I doing wrong?

thanks

Forgive me if I'm missing something, but if you're looking for this under /mnt, you won't find it.... your fstab looks like it's set to mount it in /ntfs-c, not in /mnt.

I think sure it is because you have specified /hda1 to be mounted in /ntfs-c, so you should check out /ntfs-c but not /mnt.^_^

Duh, what was I thinking? Both of you are right, thanks again.
