RE: Read NTFS

Hai Christian,

I've edit fstab with vi editor, restart computer, but it still cannot
work. I cannot browse with konqueror, because mnt directory is locked
(with locked icon).

So I decided to relogin as root user, then I can browse & that ntfs
partion. I can copy all the directory to my linux home directory.

What should I do to disable the lock on mnt directory, so user "Me" can
browse that partition. So I don’t have to login as root user, to copy my
windows file.

Thanks.
Hangga

Hummm, that should work, if you've mounted the partition manualy...
Where are the partitions mounted, that you can browse with the graphical
enviroment?

This entry will not work, becou the commas ",". Rplace the the ',' with
tabstops and change the numbers on the end of the entry. It should look
like this:

/dev/hda1	/windows/C	ntfs	ro,noauto,user,unmask=022  1 2
         ^^^^^^^          ^^^^^     ^^^^
          THIS ARE TABSTOPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With this setting your ntfs-partition should be monted automaticly
during evry systemstart. I dont't know if its browseable with konquirror
etc., I don't use the KDE, GNOME or enviorments like this, but if it
works with other windowspartitions look at these entries in the fstab
and create a simmilar for your ntfs-partition.

Hope that helps!
