Hello, I have compiled ntfsprogs 1.12.1 for use with cygwin - compilation went well and I know have the set of executables available.
Whenever I run ntfsresize (even just to get info on current NTFS filesystem using -i option) I am told : ntfsresize v1.12.1 (libntfs 8:1:0) ERROR: Device '/cygdrive/e' is mounted read-write. You must 'umount' it first. However there doesn't seem to be a way to unmount a disk in cygwin : $ umount /cygdrive/e umount: /cygdrive/e: No such file or directory Maybe this because this because the underlying windows operating system (Windows XP) doesn't allow for this or maybe I am not using the right commands ? The mount table for the system is : $ mount C:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode) C:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode) C:\cygwin on / type system (binmode) c: on /cygdrive/c type system (binmode,noumount) e: on /cygdrive/e type system (binmode,noumount) Hope someone can help - I am guessing the noumount part is trying to tell me something - hopefully there is a way to get around this......
