~~CLOUD:30~~

Please read the NTFS FAQ (or in other languages) sections 4.5, 4.9 & 4.10.

Via the command line:

mkdir /mnt/windows
mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows -t ntfs -o umask=0002,nls=utf8

via /etc/fstab:

/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs ro,umask=0002,nls=utf8

Your distribution does not support the kernel driver out of the box. Either download an RPM, or look at ntfsmount.

There is also a different driver than the one mentioned above, which is based on FUSE. See the ntfsmount for more details.

Via the command line:

mkdir /mnt/windows
ntfsmount /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows -o umask=0002,silent

via /etc/fstab:

/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs-fuse umask=0002,silent,locale=utf8
