INTRODUCTION
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
The ntfs-3g driver is an open source, freely available read/write NTFS
|
|
driver, which provides safe and fast handling of the Windows XP, Windows
|
|
Server 2003, Windows 2000 and Windows Vista filesystems. Almost the full
|
|
POSIX filesystem functionality is supported, the major exceptions are
|
|
changing the file ownerships and the access rights.
|
|
|
|
The purpose of the project is to develop, continuously quality test and
|
|
support a trustable, featureful and high performance solution for hardware
|
|
platforms and operating systems whose users need to reliably interoperate
|
|
with NTFS. Besides this practical goal, the project also aims to explore
|
|
the limits of the hybrid, kernel/user space filesystem driver approach,
|
|
performance, reliability and feature richness per invested effort wise.
|
|
|
|
The driver is in STABLE status. The test methods, the test suites used and
|
|
testimonials can be found on

QUICK INSTALLATION
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
Make sure you have the basic Linux development tools and the full FUSE
|
|
package (http://fuse.sourceforge.net) is already installed correctly on
|
|
the computer. Then type:
|
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
make install # or 'sudo make install' if you aren't root.
|
|
|
|
|
|
USAGE
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
If there was no error during installation then the NTFS volume can be
|
|
read-write mounted for everybody the following way (unmount the volume if
|
|
it was already mounted, and replace /dev/hda1 and /mnt/windows, if needed):
|
|
|
|
mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows
|
|
or
|
|
ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows
|
|
|
|
If your Operating System vendor didn't setup your language specific settings
|
|
then you may also need to set the 'locale' mount option to make all filenames
|
|
with national characters visible. Replace the below en_US.UTF-8 with the
|
|
appropriate setting. You can find more information about his topic at
|
|
http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#locale
|
|
|
|
mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows -o locale=en_US.UTF-8
|
|
|
|
Please see the ntfs-3g manual page for more options and examples.
|
|
|
|
You can also make NTFS to be mounted during boot by putting the below
|
|
line at the __END__ of the /etc/fstab file:
|
|
|
|
/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs-3g defaults 0 0
|
