[Linux-NTFS-Dev] Error using ntfsresize

[A. <ara...@sp...>]

Hi. I have been trying to use 'ntfsresize' to shrink an NTFS filesystem in 
Windows XP. I am doing it from a bootable linux floppy disk. Everything 
seems to work until I try to access my hard drive with 'ntfsresize'. I keep 
getting this message:

Failed to check '/dev/hda1' mount state: No such file or directory.

I have made sure that my hard drive is hda1, so there shoulod be no problem 
there. Fdisk can correctly identify the NTFS partition.

I have an IBM ThinkPad R40 laptop computer, running the home edition of 
Windows XP.

Is this a bug of the program, or am I missing something? I would appreciate 
a response.
