script to ntfs-3g

Who knows a scrip to install NTFS-3g and fuse?

No scripts I know of. I just follow the readme, install docs from the source.
For fuse
./configure
make
make install

For ntfs-3g
./configure
make
make install

Of course the make install command needs to be run as root. One could write a generic script to run those commands but would need to be run as root. At some point in the script before make install is run you can have it ask for for the change from user to root.

Or you could:

sudo aptitude install ntfs-3g

and then do:

sudo aptitide search fuse and install the fuse you're looking for.

Follow ithawtewrong's instructions after you've added one of the following repository (accordingly to your distro) to source.list:

Code:

For DAPPER : 
deb http://givre.cabspace.com/ubuntu/ dapper main main-all
deb http://ntfs-3g.sitesweetsite.info/ubuntu/ dapper main main-all
deb http://flomertens.keo.in/ubuntu/ dapper main main-all

For EDGY : 
deb http://givre.cabspace.com/ubuntu/ edgy main-all
deb http://ntfs-3g.sitesweetsite.info/ubuntu/ edgy main-all
deb http://flomertens.keo.in/ubuntu/ edgy main-all

Packages are authenticated with a gpg key.
To use it, you should execute one of the following command:

Code:

wget http://flomertens.keo.in/ubuntu/givre_key.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -

wget http://givre.cabspace.com/ubuntu/givre_key.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -

ntfs-3g is is the ubuntu universe repositories so you don't need to use any 3rd part repos.
just apt-get install ntfs-3g and all it's dependences will be installed too.
