Hi there, 

I can't make ntfs progs to work at all here.

My windows C drive should be sda1. 

bin>ntfsinfo.exe -v -m -d /dev/sda1
Failed to set locale, using default '(null)'.
win32_io.c(199): ntfs_device_win32_open The handle is invalid.
 ioctl failed
Couldn't mount device '/dev/sda1': No error

Just in case I tried with hda1:

bin>ntfsinfo.exe -v -m -d /dev/hda1
Failed to set locale, using default '(null)'.
Couldn't mount device '/dev/hda1': Invalid argument


I also have a (separate from gnuwin32 progs) cygwin installation, and this is
what it shows in /proc/partitions:

$ cat /proc/partitions
major minor  #blocks  name

    8     0 244198584 sda
    8     1   5092573 sda1
    8     2 239095395 sda2

sda1 is my windows installation, using ntfs. 

So, what am I doing wrong?

I really would like to get ntfsprogs working here, so I hope you could help
me here:)

Thank you
