Hi there, I can't make ntfs progs to work at all here. I cannot figure out what, how to pass for device/ partition I'm refering to to any of the ntfsprogs. Nothing seems to work. Does it expect some special Windows path? Under Linux, the ntfs drive would be /dev/sda1. I'm trying under Win XP using the GnuWin32 ntfsprogs: bin>ntfsinfo.exe -v -m -d /dev/sda1 Failed to set locale, using default '(null)'. win32_io.c(199): ntfs_device_win32_open The handle is invalid. ioctl failed Couldn't mount device '/dev/sda1': No error Just in case I tried with hda1: bin>ntfsinfo.exe -v -m -d /dev/hda1 Failed to set locale, using default '(null)'. Couldn't mount device '/dev/hda1': Invalid argument I also have a (separate from gnuwin32 progs) cygwin installation, and this is what it shows in /proc/partitions: $ cat /proc/partitions major minor #blocks name 8 0 244198584 sda 8 1 5092573 sda1 8 2 239095395 sda2 sda1 is my windows installation, using ntfs. So, what am I doing wrong? I really would like to get ntfsprogs working here, so I hope you could help me here:) Thank you ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.
