Am I the only one getting this error whenever I try to mount a drive? I know my Windows system was shut down properly. My machine was running Vista before I switched (yay Hackintosh! ), but this particular drive was formatted a long while before under XP. I have tried using the "force" option, but that doesn't seem to make a difference either. Any ideas?
vengeance:/Volumes root# ntfs-3g /dev/disk1s2 /Volumes/"BACKUP" -o ping_diskarb,volname="BACKUP" Failed to mount '/dev/disk1s2': Operation not supported Mount is denied because NTFS is unclean. Choose one of these actions: Boot Windows and shutdown it cleanly, or if you have a removable device then click the 'Safely Remove Hardware' icon in the Windows taskbar notification area before disconnecting it. Or Run 'ntfsfix' on Linux unless you have Vista, then mount NTFS with the 'force' option read-write, or with the 'ro' option read-only. Or Mount the NTFS volume with the 'ro' option in read-only mode. |

Oh, and also, you can look into the ext2fsx project to see how he did it. It's largely for 10.3, but the .fs bundle stuff should be quite similar.

Aww man, now I gotta install Windows again?!
Maybe I'll just leave it for now. Don't really need to write to the NTFS drives I have in there right now...ahh well, on to step 2 (SSHFS ) |

Do you guys think this will become more user-friendly with the time ? Like double-click install and boom! (à la mr.Jobs)
Can we expect something totally integrated in a OSX future version. Maybe not 10.5 but why not on a 10.5.x ? Dave Mustaine :"God created whammy bars for people who don't know how to solo." |

Little bit off-topic
I tried to gives you some rep points for that but it says "You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to chucker again." What the fuck ? I gave you to many points or what Dave Mustaine :"God created whammy bars for people who don't know how to solo." |

No, it means you gave me one before and haven't given anyone else reputation since. If it's any consolation, I run into that problem a lot. And I do appreciate your effort. Might I suggest giving ShadowOfGed some? I was gonna do what he did, but he beat me to it (I preferred to get some sleep ), so he deserves credit.

Perhaps it will appear in Mac OS X. It's a Google product, and Eric Schmidt at the MacWorld keynote was talking about how the internet allows collaboration between companies.

Well, it's a Google 20% time project. I wouldn't quite call it a product. That said, there sure is a chance it'll appear in Mac OS X sooner or later. I just don't think Schmidt's talk, or the company this was mainly developed at, has much bearing on such a decision.

So... what might be causing this? I used the binary packages posted on the first page, and they appeared to install properly. Trying to mount my NTFS bootcamp partition for read-write access.
Code:
erbic-computer:~ erbic$ sudo mkdir /Volumes/"Windows HD"
erbic-computer:~ erbic$ sudo ntfs-3g /dev/disk0s3 /Volumes/"Windows HD" -o ping_diskarb,volname="Windows HD"
sh: line1: modprobe: command not found
kextload: /System/Library/Extensions/fusefs.kext loaded successfully
fuse: failed to exec mount program: No such file or directory The first two lines are what I type, the last four are what it spits back at me. I've tried the second line with or without sudo; without sudo I get an access denied error. |

Code:
sudo ln -s /System/Library/Filesystems/fusefs.fs/mount_fusefs /usr/local/bin/mount_fusefs should fix it.Code:
sh: line1: modprobe: command not found Is a bug with ntfs-3g; it's assuming Linux (modprobe is a Linux kernel-specific command to load a kernel mod; that's irrelevant on OS X, since its equivalent, kernel extensions, are loaded automatically on demand). Doesn't matter, just ignore it.Code:
kextload: /System/Library/Extensions/fusefs.kext loaded successfully Is the indication that, as described above, the relevant kernel extension has been loaded as needed. A similar notice appears in your logfiles, for instance, when you first mount an SMB share, because the smbfs kernel extension also only gets loaded on-demand. Nothing for you to worry about either.Code:
fuse: failed to exec mount program: No such file or directory Is the only actual problem. ShadowOfGed's installer should be amended to create a symlink; my line at the beginning of this post does this for you. |

No joy. Did exactly what you said, and it came back saying the file already existed. So I used sudo rm to delete the mount_fusefs file which was already in /usr/local/bin/, and re-executed the command in your post. Tried to mount the disk again and it gave me the same error.
So any other solutions? Last edited by ErBiC : 2007-01-15 at 01:57. |

I am getting this error:
Code:
Magi:~ harataiki$ ntfs-3g /dev/disk0s1 /Volumes/"Hara Taiki" -o ping_diskarb,volname="Hara Taiki"
Error opening partition device: Permission denied
Failed to startup volume: Permission denied
Failed to mount '/dev/disk0s1': Permission denied
Magi:~ harataiki$ Any help?Also, my NTFS drive used to just be "Hara Taiki" before unmounting, now it says "Hara Taiki 1". Any way to change it back? |

Ok, that worked for that part.
Now I get this: Code:

kextload: /System/Library/Extensions/fusefs.kext loaded successfully

Something's wrong with your new NTFS-3g package. The installer goes fine until you actually click "Install", then errors out with "You cannot continue. There is nothing to install."

Ok, I updated and tried the same command again. Now I get this:

OK, Pacifist let me install the new NTFS-3g package.
But. It's still yelling at me about how the mount program doesn't exist every time I try to mount a disk. I've re-created the symlink manually several times, with absolutely no effect. Does MacFUSE just hate my computer or something? |

Code:
which mount_fusefs ? You should get the path, like "/usr/local/bin/mount_fusefs". If not, that's where the problem lies. |

Yeah, I was gonna suggest that. Just a few lines to remove.

Renaming does indeed seem to work. I don't see ntfslabel actually being launched, though; perhaps 'watch -n0' isn't fast enough to catch it. How does Disk Arbitration know to call that utility? You don't create a file system bundle, after all. Just wondering how this works. As for mkntfs and ntfsfix, that's useful on the command-line, I suppose, but without a file system bundle, neither can be integrated with Disk Utility, right? Also, if I'm not mistaken, all ntfsfix does is schedule a file system for checking upon next reboot in Windows? |

Ok, well, there is still this:

Code:
which mount_fusefs gave me this:Code:
no mount_dusefs in /bin /sbin /usr/bin /usr/sbin Is that correct? And what should be done to fix this? |

Do the following two:
Code:
sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/ntfs-3g /usr/bin/ntfs-3g
sudo ln -s /System/Library/Filesystems/fusefs.fs/mount_fusefs /usr/bin/mount_fusefs You could also add /usr/local/bin to your $PATH as described in the second solution at http://forums.applenova.com/showpost...6&postcount=26 |

Ok, after doing that and the instructions you links to, I am still having issues.
Now it's down to just this: Code:
Magi:~ harataiki$ ntfs-3g /dev/disk0s1 /Volumes/"Hara Taiki" -o ping_diskarb,volname="Hara Taiki"
mount_fusefs: /Volumes/Hara Taiki: No such file or directory Close... so close... |

You need to create the mountpoint first, like:
Code:
sudo mkdir /Volumes/"Hara Taiki" Note that, when you unmount, OS X will delete the mountpoint. So each time you mount, you'll want to do:Code:
sudo mkdir /Volumes/"Hara Taiki" && ntfs-3g /dev/disk0s1 /Volumes/"Hara Taiki" -o ping_diskarb,volname="Hara Taiki" |

Sometimes I do stupid things. I changed the package identifier to match that of filesystems, so it's now org.ntfs-3g.filesystems.ntfs. In order to make this problem go away, do the following before you install: Code:
sudo rm -rf /Library/Receipts/NTFS-3g.pkg I forgot to mention that change. Sorry about that!Apparently I call the cops when I see people litter. Last edited by ShadowOfGed : 2007-01-15 at 19:40. Reason: Rewording |

Oh, also, the Mac convention appears to be newfs_ntfs, not mkfs.ntfs.

Ok, that worked this time, thank you!
Can I change the default icon? |

Quote:
Just do this in Finder: 1) Get Info on anything that has the icon you want. 2) Select the icon in the top left of the Get Info window. It should have a focus ring. 3) Copy. 4) Get Info on the NTFS partition. 5) Select the icon in the top left of the Get Info window. It should have a focus ring. 6) Paste to replace. It should take effect immediately. To undo, you simply hit the backspace key. Easy as pie. |
