Re: rw access to ntfs
writing into NTFS it is not officialy supported yet. on of the solutions - is to create some partition with FAT32 for example and use it. :-) On 6/29/05, Ben Paley [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I'm running 5.4 on a dual boot machine with winxp. Here's the relevant line of /etc/fstab: /dev/ad0s2 /mntntfsrw 0 0 It mounts fine with no errors at boot time, but I seem to have read-only access. I've done a bit of googling about this and everything I find which mentions this is quite old, and all the replies seem to imply it should have been sorted by now. Any ideas?

Perhaps you could ask Microsoft to provide support in Windows for accessing any kind of filesystem other than their own. ;-) --Alex ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Let Winxp loose on my fbsd partition? shudders Well, it's a sourceforge project, so it isn't by Microsoft. If you're concerned about data integrity, then you could try: 1) Mount only one shared FreeBSD partition using this software and 2) Make this partition on a separate disk slice (or even disk) from your regular system. It's either that or FAT32 (with no real concept of file ownership, file permissions, or ability to change times). --Alex ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
