Is it possible that, after recompiling my kernel with the needed modules (see the FAQ file about mounting Windows partitions) set (*),
gentoo still says that the type ntfs is not supported?
also my navite language support is set alright
my /etc/fstab file:
| Code: |
# NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.
/dev/hda7 /boot ext3 noauto,noatime 1 1
/dev/hda10 / reiserfs noatime 0 0
/dev/hda8 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hda9 home reiserfs noatime 0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0
#WINDOWS MOUNTS
/dev/hda1 /mnt/C ntfs defaults,ro 0 0
/dev/hda2 /mnt/D ntfs defaults,ro 0 0
/dev/hda5 /mnt/E ntfs defaults,ro 0 0
/dev/hda6 /mnt/F ntfs defaults,ro 0 0
/dev/hdb /mnt/G vfat defaults 0 0
|
all the in /mnt mentioned directories exist
mounting the partitions manually gives:
| Code: | | mount: fs type ntfs not supported by kernel |

I've compiled ntfs and ntfs write support but I'm getting an error of "permission denied" when trying to write to a mounted ntfs partition.
OK I appreciate that ntfs write support under 2.4 is experimental, but that's exactly what I want to do!
I've got a USB2 external hard drive with a ntfs partition and want to expeiiment some. After enteting | Code: | | mount -t ntfs -o owner,uid=1000,gid=100,async,rw /dev/sda2 /mnt/ntfs |
I'm still getting this error. |

/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro,user 0 0

You have to make them with the "mkdir" command.
I have a question did the unmask and uid change for 2.6. My fat fstab line is.
/dev/hda2 /mnt/hda2 vfat auto,rw,uid=1000,unmask=1000 0 0
All works good under the 2.4 series, but 2.6 returns this error
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda2
or too many mounted file systems
If I take the uid and unmask out it mount's fine.
Thanks Wes
Man I'm an idiot it's umask not unmask. Weird that it worked on 2.4 though. Im going to leave this here just incase somebody else make's the same mistake. |

Thats cool at least i know now  just a couple more questions. After having some issues with Windows and having to reinstall and me breaking my Gentoo install (oops) I decided to install mandrake to see how it does its FSTAB.
Its interesting
1) auto = This is auto detect FS type correct?
2) supermount = ? what is this is this auto mounting when a CD is inserted into the drive? |

| Mandrake uses the kernel supermount patch. Yea it's auto mount when a cd is put in. You can use that on Gentoo alot of the kernel's have patches for it. |

| How would I go about making my mounted partitions readable by all but only writeable by an arbitrary set of users (or at least just root/superuser)? |

i cant seem to get this NTFS drive to mount.... but i can get my other ntfs drive (scsi) to mount
this is my fstab (notice how my scsi drive isnt even in there but it mounts fine)
| Code: |
/dev/hde1 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 2
/dev/hde3 / ReiserFS noatime 0 1
/dev/hde2 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro,user 0 0
/dev/hda1 /mnt/Data ntfs auto,rw 0 0
|
and this is the error i get
| Code: |
bash-2.05b# mount /mnt/Data
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda1,
or too many mounted file systems
|
ive tried every combination of commands possible, and even without it being in fstab, but i get the same error... why cant i mount this ntfs drive but i can mount my other?

I'm glad someone else is having the same problem as me, I've not found a workaround yet.....

Newbie here needs some help.
I already compiled my kernel but forgot to choose FAT32 support. I'm trying to mount a FAT32 drive. How do I recompile my kernel? I originally compiled it off my LiveCD. |

Just redo the steps that you did to compile the kernel...
make menuconfig (/usr/src/linux)
make modules && make modules_install && make install
The last does the bzImage, copys it to /boot and updates your lilo and grub entries.

|

Hope someone can help me out with this. I can mount and browse the partition without any problems but am unable to write to it.
Konquerer reports:
| Code: | | cannot write to /mnt/stuff/filename |
Trying from a terminal (as myself or root) returns:
| Code: | | cp: cannot create regular file `/mnt/stuff/Progs/simpguestl.xls': Read-only file system |
My fstab entry is as follows:
| Code: | | /dev/hda7 /mnt/stuff vfat defaults,umask=000,rw 0 0 |

|
|
I have this line in my fstab, and it works great! I have used other lines, but i dont remember what they were. They all contained "ro" for read only in the options, and "exec" for execute to enter folders, and "umask=###". they some either had "user" or "users" in the options.... but they all have "ro, exec, umask=###" i remember a few different umasks would work though. Anways hers my line:
| Code: | | /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs user,exec,umask=022,ro 0 0 |
^^^ that isnt the ONLY line you can use, but for sure that line will work! |

Hi, I am having troubles with mounting my NTFS partitions. I just want to be able to access the drives, especially because it has all my music and videos on them.
My UserID is 1000 so I put this into fstab:
| Code: | /dev/hda1 /mnt/iCore ntfs defaults,ro,uid=1000 0 0
/dev/hda2 /mnt/iPrograms ntfs defaults,ro,uid=1000 0 0
/dev/hda3 /mnt/iJunk ntfs defaults,ro,uid=1000 0 0
/dev/hdb1 /mnt/iDrive ntfs defaults,ro,uid=1000 0 0
|
I restarted X and when I try to enter it displays this error message:
Could not enter /mnt/iPrograms
Any suggestions? |

/dev/hda2 /mnt/windows/d ntfs user,exec,ro,umask=000 0 0 |

|
|
I have seen other remarks about this, but have not found a solution. I can mount my fat32 partition as msdos, but not as vfat. If I try vfat I get,
| Code: | mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdb7,
or too many mounted file systems |
.
There are some hints that this might be a problem with kernel 2.6.8, but I haven't found anything decisive. Does anyone know what is gioing on here? I would really like to have my long file names. |

Once again I have missed something stupid and this was simple. I guess thats why they call me n00b.
I was missing a kernel module:
| Code: | File Systems ----->
----->Native Language Support
(iso8859-1) Default NLS Option
<M> Codepage 437
:
:
<M> NLS ISO 8859-1 <--this was missing |

No matter why i do, i still can't mount my ntfs partition as a normal user. Here is my fstab:
| Code: |
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
# $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/fstab,v 1.14 2003/10/13 20:03:38 azarah Exp $
#
# noatime turns off atimes for increased performance (atimes normally aren't
# needed; notail increases performance of ReiserFS (at the expense of storage
# efficiency). It's safe to drop the noatime options if you want and to
# switch between notail and tail freely.
# <fs> <mountpoint> <type> <opts> <dump/pass>
# NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.
/dev/hda2 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 2
/dev/hda4 / reiserfs noatime,notail 0 1
/dev/hda3 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto 0 0
/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs noauto 0 0
/dev/hdc1 /mnt/esclavo ntfs noauto,user,umask=000 0 0

By the moment I only want to acces as user the /dev/hdc1 partition. I need help PLEASE!!!  [/quote] |
