John..
Thanks for your note. And you were right!! It sure does work once you have
the module installed.
But I have another question. I have two partitions that I would like to
mount.
/dev/hda1 /dos_c ntfs defaults 1 1
/dev/hda5 /dos_d ntfs defaults 1 1
The first one mounts just fine, but not the second one. Here is what I see
when I try and mount the second one manually:
# mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /dos_c
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda1,
or too many mounted file systems
So something is wrong there. We know that /dev/hda5 mounted just fine but not
hda1. And if I reverse things and mount /hda1 first than /dev/hda5 won't
mount.
Funny thing - if I type " mount /dev/hda1 /dos_c " it will mount just
fine??
I wonder why? This time I just didn't enter the " -t ntfs", and it worked??
Any thoughts on this one fellows??
