[OpenIndiana-discuss] ntfs-3g

[Apostolos Syropoulos]

 Hello,

I kust wanted to check ntfs-3g and I downloaded and installed the packages from

http://jp-andre.pagesperso-orange.fr/openindiana-ntfs-3g.html

However, it seems that it is not working.


# rmformat -l
Looking for devices...
1. Logical Node: /dev/rdsk/c2t3d0p0
Physical Node: /pci at 0,0/pci1849,4391 at 11/cdrom at 3,0

# ntfs /dev/rdsk/c4t0d0p0 /mtn
NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/devices/pci at 0,0/pci1849,4396 at 13,2/storage at 2/disk at 0,0:q,raw': Invalid argument
The device '/devices/pci at 0,0/pci1849,4396 at 13,2/storage at 2/disk at 0,0:q,raw' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.
Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a
partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?

Fdisk shows the following:

Partition   Status    Type          Start   End   Length    %
=========   ======    ============  =====   ===   ======   ===
1       Active    IFS: NTFS         1  3890    3890    100

The USB thumb disk has been formatted using a machine running Windows 7.

A.S.
