[Linux-NTFS-Dev] trouble mounting ntfs

[JEREMY M. H. <jer...@st...>]

Hello, 

I just followed the instructions on the webpage to the redhat kernel 2.4.20-8 on redhat 9.  My processor is an althon.  The installation for ntfs support went great, but I was unable to actually mount a drive.

here is my mount command:
mount -t ntfs -r /dev/hdb /home/part

and the error:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdb;      or too many mounted file systems

I am very new to linux, and don't know if the problem is in my computer or linux installation, or if the file I downloaded was faulty.  

Thanks for your help!

Jeremy
