Alright, I'm going to make it a lot easier to wreck your NTFS partitions.
I've taken the liberty of making installer packages for MacFUSE and NTFS-3g. The MacFUSE package also automatically takes care of loading and unloading the FUSE kext as necessary.
Both MacFUSE and NTFS-3g are built as Universal Binaries, so they should work for both PowerPC and Intel.
NOTE: I've not yet tested it on either one, since I have no NTFS partitions right now. I followed
chucker's instructions to build them, so it should be OK.
The NTFS-3g installer requires that you have the MacFUSE package installed first, so install them in this order:
- MacFUSE 0.1.0b4. This installs MacFUSE and its dependencies.
- NTFS-3g Beta 2007-01-02. This installs the Universal ntfs-3g tools.
As mentioned before, backups are
always, always a good idea. But for those of you who don't have Xcode or aren't comfortable building things from the command line, here are the installation packages you'll need.
The instructions for mounting NTFS volumes still stand, as given by
chucker's post above.
Enjoy!
