External HD
I have a 500GB USB HD which I am able mount thus: mount_ntfs /dev/da2s1 /mnt Having done so I can copy from the external drive, but not write to it. What is necessary to implement in order to be able to write to an external hard drive?

Re: External HD
Rem, You cannot write to NTFS using the stock driver. Please use Google to search / do research on the drivers out there; writing to NTFS is a VERY dangerous thing. Your best bet is to just do your work over the network instead of directly over USB from a Windows-based node. Also, read the man file for mount_ntfs, it will explain more. -- Ryan On Aug 21, 2010, at 11:31 AM, Rem P Roberti wrote: I have a 500GB USB HD which I am able mount thus: mount_ntfs /dev/da2s1 /mnt Having done so I can copy from the external drive, but not write to it.

Is there much Data on the disk?, it may be worth while moving to FAT32 or a FS that is shared by both (If your happy to live with the 4GB max file size).

If you look at the source code (in /usr/src/sys/geom/geom_bsd.c), it's dividing the offsets by a sector-size when it prints them out. So they only the same when rounded-down to a sector boundary. I guess you are using a larger sector-size for geli, and specified a fraction of a sector somewhere in the disklabel. BTW it doesn't make much difference, but I don't see any point in using anything other than 448 bits for blowfish under geli. Unlike the other ciphers, no part of its performance is affected by keysize. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
usb external hd question
Hi I bought an external usb hd but i can just get FreeBSD (both 6.2 and 7) to recognice it if the drive is switched on and plugged in during system boot up. Case in which i get the drive detected with both partitions i made in it. (da0 da0s1 da0s2) If i switch it on in an already running system, only an empty usb device is created (da0). Anything i could do for FreeBSD to detect both partitions if i switch the drive on in a already booted up system? also, a side question. When attaching a geli provider, i get this: GEOM_ELI: Device ad4s3.eli created.

yes, last time you mounted da0s1d , u didnt unmounted it cleanly. Before you
mount, you should run fsck -p on it:
(as root, or with sudo)
fsck -p -t ufs /dev/da0s1d

of course, it is nothing to do with the usb itself, it's a filesystem issue.
