Hello!
I was earlier using the SL-5 LiveCD where-in I was able to mount a
NTFS partition and read-write data on the same. But, after installing
SL-5 using the 3.7 GiB DVD, it returns that NTFS is 'unknown
filesystem', so I am unable to mount it now. How can the issue be solved?
You can install the following rpm on your SL5 system:
# rpm -ihv
http://linux.web.psi.ch/dist/scientific/50/psi/all/ntfs-3g-1.913-3.slp5.i386.rpm
To mount for example /dev/sda1 as NTFS filesystem:
# mkdir -p /mnt/sda1
# mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1
Cheers,
