Mount an NTFS Drive

[icemannz]

Hi all,
I am running PC-BSD.
I have installed ntfs-3g with the following and all went ok,
cd /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-ntfs/ && make install clean

When I try to use it with,
ntfs-3g /dev/ad0s4 /mnt/vista
fuse: failed to open fuse device: no such file or directory
The /mnt/vista does exist and the /dev/ad0s4 works with the default ntfs drivers in fstab.

I have the following in my /etc/fstab file and these work but I am only using the default drivers inside FreeBSD and they just give me Read Only access.
If I try to use ntfs-3g it won't mount
/dev/ad0s4 /mnt/vista ntfs rw 0 0
/dev/ad0s6 /mnt/edrive ntfs rw 0 0

/dev/ad0s6 /mnt/edrive ntfs rw 0 0

Well I ain't sure but try this :idea:

# mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/ad0s4 /mnt/vista

If it works, let me know :-)

I confused too

%mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/ad0s6 /NTFS
mount: exec mount_ntfs-3g not found in /sbin:/usr/sbin: No such file or directory
%ntfs-3g /dev/ad0s6 /NTFS
fuse: failed to open fuse device: No such file or directory
%

Anything interesting about this in /var/log/messages ?

Just copy fuse.ko from /usr/local/modules/ to /boot/kernel

and

kldload fuse

Can't mount ntfs partition with ntfs-3g. Somethig strange :? .

When i mounting partition system halts for few seconds, then go to reboot.

rw-mounting in 1.4 broken?

p.s. All partitions was checked by windows checkdisk, all errors was corrected before mounting. :x

upd. From console i getting this:

I confused too

Code:

%mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/ad0s6 /NTFS mount: exec mount_ntfs-3g not found in /sbin:/usr/sbin: No such file or directory %ntfs-3g /dev/ad0s6 /NTFS fuse: failed to open fuse device: No such file or directory %

:?

Haha..Well I ain't still sure but

%ntfs-3g /dev/ad0s6 /NTFS
fuse: failed to open fuse device: No such file or directory

seems like you are trying to point ntfs-3g to mount /dev/ad0s6 on "/NTFS" folder which ain't actually existing,you should make a folder of that name first and its better to make those mount folders in "/mnt" or "/media" ,not on "/" root system :-).And well if you had the folder "/NTFS" there already then may be the ad0s6 ain't existing or its not an ntfs drive :-).

Still I ain't sure,am just writing from my experience, and am also a newbie PcBSD user :P

Haha... yeah very close, but that's not the problem.

The problem is that the FUSE thing is not run at first start up of my computer. so i just need to do waht MinDer say

Just copy fuse.ko from /usr/local/modules/ to /boot/kernel

and

kldload fuse

I don't know how to start fuse automatically at start up :roll:

Anyone know ?

[MinDeR]

I know

There is 2 ways:

1) add fuse to loader.conf
2) don't copy module in /boot/kernel, just write in rc.conf fuse_enable="YES"

Thanks MinDer

I'll try that

But if I will edit the loeader.conf, What should I type there ? :?
