Mounting ntfs partitions in linux

For mounting ntfs partitions under linux we will use ntfs-3g package, which can be downloaded for example from search page http://rpm.pbone.net/

This example is for Fedora 6.

1. Current work directory

     [root@bm rpms]# pwd
     /usr/src/rpms

2. Download ntfs-3g-devel-1.913-2.fc6.i386.rpm :

     [root@bm rpms]# wget ftp://mirror.switch.ch/mirror/fedora/linux/extras/6/i386/ntfs-3g-devel-1.913-2.fc6.i386.rpm
     --11:39:08--  ftp://mirror.switch.ch/mirror/fedora/linux/extras/6/i386/ntfs-3g-devel-1.913-2.fc6.i386.rpm
     => `ntfs-3g-devel-1.913-2.fc6.i386.rpm'

3. Now we will try to install downloaded package:

     [root@bm rpms]# rpm -vhi ntfs-3g-devel-1.913-2.fc6.i386.rpm
     warning: ntfs-3g-devel-1.913-2.fc6.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 1ac70ce6
     error: Failed dependencies:

                  ntfs-3g = 2:1.913-2.fc6 is needed by ntfs-3g-devel-1.913-2.fc6.i386

but we see that some failed dependencies are present, so we will try to find them and then continue installation.

3.1 Download ntfs-3g = 2:1.913-2.fc6

     [root@bm rpms]# wget ftp://mirror.switch.ch/mirror/fedora/linux/extras/6/i386/ntfs-3g-1.913-2.fc6.i386.rpm
     --11:43:06--  ftp://mirror.switch.ch/mirror/fedora/linux/extras/6/i386/ntfs-3g-1.913-2.fc6.i386.rpm

3.2 Trying to install downloaded package:

     [root@bm rpms]# rpm -vhi ntfs-3g-1.913-2.fc6.i386.rpm

but failed depencies appears again. For full install of ntfs-3g package fuse and fuse libs must be previously installed.

3.2.1 Download and install fuse libs :

     [root@bm rpms]# wget ftp://mirror.switch.ch/mirror/fedora/linux/extras/6/i386/fuse-libs-2.7.0-6.fc6.i386.rpm

3.2.2 Download and install fuse :

     [root@bm rpms]# wget ftp://mirror.switch.ch/mirror/fedora/linux/extras/6/i386/fuse-2.7.0-6.fc6.i386.rpm
     --13:00:34--  ftp://mirror.switch.ch/mirror/fedora/linux/extras/6/i386/fuse-2.7.0-6.fc6.i386.rpm

4. And finally installing ntfs-3g and ntfs-3g-devel :

     [root@bm rpms]# rpm -vhi ntfs-3g-1.913-2.fc6.i386.rpm
     warning: ntfs-3g-1.913-2.fc6.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 1ac70ce6

        1:ntfs-3g-devel          ########################################### [100%]

5. Now checking if really ntfs-3g installed in the system :

     [root@bm rpms]# rpm -qa | grep ntfs
     ntfs-3g-1.913-2.fc6
     ntfs-3g-devel-1.913-2.fc6

6. How to use ntfs-3g.

There are two ways to use ntfs-3g for mounting ntfs partitions:

6.1 In the terminal command line we can type

     [root@bm rpms]# ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /mnt/drive_c
     or
     [root@bm rpms]# mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /mnt/drive_c

for mounting windows system partition ( C: drive under windows ).

6.2 Also we can put some strings into /etc/fstab file, and partitions will be mounted on system startup:

     [root@bm etc]# cat fstab
     LABEL=/1                /                       ext3    defaults        1 1
     LABEL=/boot1            /boot                   ext3    defaults        1 2
     devpts                  /dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620  0 0
     tmpfs                   /dev/shm                tmpfs   defaults        0 0
     LABEL=/home1            /home                   ext3    defaults        1 2
     LABEL=/opt1             /opt                    ext3    defaults        1 2
     proc                    /proc                   proc    defaults        0 0
     sysfs                   /sys                    sysfs   defaults        0 0
     LABEL=/tmp1             /tmp                    ext3    defaults        1 2
     LABEL=/usr1             /usr                    ext3    defaults        1 2
     LABEL=/usr/local1       /usr/local              ext3    defaults        1 2
     LABEL=/var1             /var                    ext3    defaults        1 2
     LABEL=SWAP-hda10        swap                    swap    defaults        0 0
     /dev/hda1   	     /mnt/drive_c            ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000     0 0
     /dev/hda5   	     /mnt/drive_d            ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000     0 0
     /dev/hda6   	     /mnt/drive_e            ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000     0 0
