Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3235744 By: flatcap Hi Aji, It's nothing to worry about. RedHat 9 uses a 2.4 Linux kernel which contains our old NTFS driver (version 1.x.y). The driver has _some_ write support, but it's much too dangerous to use. Even if you had a 2.6 Linux kernel, the NTFS write support would be very limited (we're working on it). The driver can overwrite existing data, but cannot create or delete files or directories.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3230071 By: nobody Update Sequence Several structures in NTFS have sequence numbers in them to check for consistancy errors. They are FILE, INDX, RCRD and RSTR records. Before the record is written to disk, the last two bytes of each sector are copied to an array in the header. The update sequence number is then incremented and written to the end of each sector. If any disk corruption occurs, this technique could detect it. The Update Sequence Array (usa) is an array of the __u16 values which belong to the end of each sector protected by the update sequence record in which this array is contained. Note that the first entry is the Update Sequence Number (usn), a cyclic counter of how many times the protected record has been written to disk. The values 0 and -1 (ie. 0xffff) are not used. All last __u16's of each sector have to be equal to the usn (during reading) or are set to it (during writing). If they are not, an incomplete multi sector transfer has occured when the data was written. The maximum size for the update sequence array is fixed to: maximum size = usa_ofs + (usa_count * 2) = 510 bytes The 510 bytes comes from the fact that the last __u16 in the array has to (obviously) finish before the last __u16 of the first 512-byte sector. This formula can be used as a consistency check in that usa_ofs + (usa_count * 2) has to be less than or equal to 510. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Hi, Sorry about delay in replying. I am CC:-ing ntfs-user as other people may run into this problem and would want to have the answer in the archives. Hope you don't mind.

Are you sure the driver is compiled with r/w support? Type: "dmesg | grep NTFS" and it will tell you if the driver is compiled r/o or r/w. Assuming it is r/w then the mount should succeed. Again after mounting run: "dmesg | tail" and you will see any error messages it output if it failed to mount r/w. Assuming that worked, you cannot use dd just like that on a file as it tries to truncate the file to 0 size first and then extend it again. You need to use the notrunc conv option to dd, instead of "dd in=blah of=pagefile.sys ..." use "dd conv=notrunc if=blah of=pagefile.sys ..." and it should now definitely work.

There is much to do that is not about coding, choose what interests you and ask about it. Just ask thorugh the mailing list if someone isn't working on what you want to do and if you require any concrete help, you will probably get some. Any contribution will be useful.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3220254 By: darkonc I think that the biggest problem that the NTFS driver has is that most of the programmers who are good enough and know enough about Linux to do good driver writing know enough to run screaming whenever they hear the windows 'startup' sound. I have 3 Linux boxes and one OpenBSD box, but I only dual-boot one to Win-95 to play one game. To work on NTFS I'd actually have to (uck!) pay for a copy of XP andload it on my machine. Perhaps, If I come across a cheap used NT box, I can have some fun developing NTFS. In the meantime, however, what can a Peon like myself do to support the project? I'm thinking of things like organizing the (raw?) documenttion that you have, writting support routines, perhaps putting the rest of the docs and Ideas you have on a (simple) web page so others have access, etc. ? ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Yes, as the error essage suggests, try the "errors=recover" mount option. So when mounting do: mkdir /mnt/ntfs mount -t ntfs -o ro,errors=recover /dev/blah /mnt/ntfs Obviously replace /dev/blah with the partition device your are mounting. That will look for the backup boot sector and try to mount with it instead of the primary boot sector.

I have a disk that I need to read. I do not have any control over how the disk was written. It has a single partition, with an ntfs filesystem. The rescue disk from www.sysreccd.org has the 1.2 NTFS driver, and it can read the disk. The suse 9.1/9.2 live cd's have 2.6 kernels with 2.1.16 & 2.1.17 NTFS drivers, and they complain when I try to mount it read_ntfs_boot_sector(): Primary boot sector is invalid. read_ntfs_boot_sector(): Mount option errors=recover not used. Aborting without trying to recover. ntfs_fill_super(): Not an NTFS volume. My guess is there is something marginally wrong with the superblock, which the older driver ignored, but the newer one is more strict. I would like to be able to use something newer than that rescue disk to read this, since it has its own problems... any ideas? |

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3193502 By: andrewpunch I'm glad to hear that you got so far with your installation of Linux. I assume what you're trying to do is use Linux to rename these files so your Windows box will start. The bad news is that you probably can't mess with these files: http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/info/ntfs.html#3.2 The good news is that you can recover your data using Linux then copy it over the network to a friend's PC or burn it on CD.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3193386 By: nobody I use Windows XP Home normally (yeah, laugh it up), but recently one of my drivers decided it wasn't going to work anymore. I have a very easy way of fixing it, but it would require renaming and deleting some system files, but because of the driver, Windows XP won't even start. Due to some sloppy repartitioning, MS-DOS won't recognize my drives as... well... drives. I had been considering installing Linux, so I set aside about 4 gigs of unallocated space on my hard disk before this whole thing happened. Tech support reps tell me I should just use the recovery CD to wipe my hard drive, but I kinda want to keep my data. So, as a last resort, I installed Linux even though I haven't read up on how to use it _at all_, but my knowledge of absolutely random stuff helped me pull off a successful install of the Slackware distribution. I've already mounted my C:\ drive, and I'm looking at the files I want changed right now using that "ls" doohickey. I get this error, though: "rm: cannot remove [file]: Read-only file system" ...and my friend tells me that writing to NTFS from Linux can get complicated and that I should Google it. Please help! I'll make you brownies... ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3176538 By: antona When you ran xconfig why did you not add the NTFS support option under file systems? If you don't want to rebuild the kernel again then simply: run xconfig select NTFS to be a module save and exit xconfig make modules make modules_install depmod -a modprobe ntfs You can now mount your ntfs filesystems.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3176420 By: nobody I'm running Fedora Core 2 and wish to add NTFS support. I started with kernel 2.6.5-1.358, but I ran xconfig and added more options, then built a new kernel. (2.6.5-1.358custom) When I try to install the correct module for kernel 2.6.5-1.358, it says that it can't because its not the current kernel running. I guess that its looking at the "custom" suffix. I read the section about "building you own module", but I'm not sure where I can find the source code for the kernel. What is the best way to add NTFS support to this Custom kernel without building a new kernel? Any help would be appreciated. thank you Dan ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.
