In the future it will also contain a new NTFS driver for the + Linux kernel. + + The Linux-NTFS project is registered on Sourceforge.net and the project page + is: http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-ntfs/ + + If you would like to take part in the development of Linux-NTFS, you are + invited to subscribe to the development mailing list, + lin...@li.... The easeist way to do this is to visit + the list page on sourceforge at: + http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-ntfs-dev + + NTFS library + ============ + + Provides common NTFS access functions to the ntfstools and other foreign + open source applications. Note, that the library is still under heavy + development and doesn't include the majority of functionality yet. It only + is capable of just about supporting the current ntfstools, so I wouldn't + recommend using it for your own applications at this stage. + + NTFS utilities + ============== + + The ntfstools will eventually include utilities for doing all required tasks + to NTFS partitions. In general, just run a utility without any command line + options to display the version number and usage syntax. + + The following utilities are so far implemented: + + NtfsFix v0.0.2 - Attempt to fix an NTFS parition that has been damaged by the + Linux NTFS driver. Note that you should run it every time after you have used + the Linux NTFS driver to write to an NTFS partition to prevent massive data + corruption from happening when Windows mounts the partition. + IMPORTANT: Run this only *after* unmounting the partition in Linux but *before* + rebooting into Windows NT/2000 or you *will* suffer! - You have been warned! + + NtfsDump_LogFile v0.0.1 - Interpret and display information about the journal + ($LogFile) of an NTFS volume. + + |
