2008-10-23T17:30:00.000-07:00

Linux for beginners, there are several reasons that make reluctant to use Linux continues simultan.
one reason is data integrity. Which, by default Linux can not write data
bertipe hard drive partition to NTFS / FAT. The result, if you edit a data and will save them again
you must log in Windows to do so. But first, there is now no longer a reason for not using
Linux. One program that can write data partition into NTFS / FAT is NTFS-3G.

NTFS-3G is a mechanism mounting NTFS / FAT File System with the read-write mode.
Let us begin.
* First download the application NTFS-3G here. Do not forget to make sure the library "fuse".
for the library to check whether the fuse is installed in your computer:
# rpm-qa
yet, if there is not, you can download here.
--- Skip if the fuse is already installed
#tar-zxvf fuse-2.6.3.tar.gz
#. /configure
# make & & make install
--- end on the noticeboard
* Set to "daemon" fuse running when booting.
# chkconfig - ad - level 35 fuse
for ye lovers openSUSE there an easier way, namely through:
YaST -> System -> System Service (Runlevels) -> Select the expert mode ->
then give checklist on runlevel 3 and 5
* Now time to install NTFS-3g
# tar-zxvf ntfs-3g-1.0.tgz
#. / configure
# make & & make install
* Is the last stage of implementation
open the file / etc / fstab editor pet you
# vi / etc / fstab
edit the following line
/ dev/sda1 / Rajiva/Win32 ntfs default 0 0
with this
/ dev/sda1 / Rajiva/Win32 ntfs-3g rw, auto, users, gid = users, umask = 0002, NLS = utf8 0 0
* Restart the computer and .. farewell windows.
