i think it's your calling of ntfsmount. I do this to mount an
existing ntsf partition (i'm guessing that's your goal here).
ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/Macally2 -o
force,silent,umask=0,locale=en_US.utf8,no_def_opts,allow_other,user
ntfsmount --help shows this:

why there is a ntfsmount command that doesn nothing is beyond me.
