domino Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 (edited) No corruption on file transfers. Haven't done any extensive tests on it unlike NTFS-3G for Linux, but i'm sure there will be bugs. 700mb divx test file: NTFS --> 500gig Ext USB2 NTFS drive = 20 minutes NTFS --> HFS = 1 min. 19 sec. HFS --> NTFS = 1 min. 50 sec. Major performance hit reading/writing to 500gig ext USB2 drive, compared to NTFS-3G for Linux (4 minutes). It may be the USB drivers on 10.4.7 which was an issue a few months ago. I may not have patched it...dunno. USB drive has critical files so i wont be mounting ntfs3g driver on it. Major issue for me: Moved 4gig WinXP.hdd Parallels virtual drive to internal NTFS and tried to mount the vd to parallels gui. Parallels would not recognize the virtual drive perams. Posted something on parallels forum but I guess they aren't too concerned at this early point. Who would? It would have been nice to be able to run CentOS dev webserver and work on it under windows, linux, and Mac.

helios Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Ok it's installed and working, now how do I make it automount with the ntfs-3g driver? Edited etc/fstab but the instructions where for Linux so I guess it's not exactly like that... tried it though without success..

domino Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 It's not exactly the way it's done. I'm researching a way to automount using the OS X automount feature so it automounts both internal and external drives.

Big Kahuna Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Full NTFS support in Mac OS X: **Files Necessary: MacFUSE DMG Installer NTFS-3g DMG Installer Note: Before continuing this process, if you've attemped to install the NTFS package before: (In Terminal): sudo rm -rf /Library/Receipts/NTFS-3g.pkg Then, continue on. Install the two dmg files (macfuse and NTFS-3g) After installing open terminal: PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin export PATH sudo ln -s /System/Library/Filesystems/fusefs.fs/mount_fusefs /usr/local/bin/mount_fusefs sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/ntfs-3g /usr/bin/ntfs-3g That just ensured that all the files are where they need to be. If you get "file exists"... that's fine!!! Now that the prep work is done.. let's mount this drive already!!! In Terminal: sudo mkdir /Volumes/"Your Windows Drive" <Replace "Your Windows Drive with w/e your drive is IN QUOTES.. "Windows XP" "Windows HD" > Continuing on: In Terminal (all in one command): sudo ntfs-3g /dev/disk0s1 /Volumes/"Your Windows Drive" -o ping_diskarb,volname="Your Windows Drive" ***NOTE*** in the /dev/disk0s1 -- replace this with the location of your Windows Drive, to find it, look in Disk Utility in Applications -> Utilities... and then the properties for your drive. Also, the "Your Windows Drive" is the same we discussed earlier IN QUOTES.

mickles Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Allright, I figured out how to get rid of the error: "failed to exec mount program: no such file or directory" When you do the path stuff, don't do it as root, don't use sudo: PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin export PATH Everything mounted find after that with nice ntfs write support If you want the disks to automount when you start up, then go to /System/Library/StartupItems/Disks/ and type sudo nano Disks there should be a line that says /sbin/autodiskmount -va. After that line add something like this: PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin export PATH umount /Volumes/External rm -R /Volumes/External mkdir /Volumes/Storage ntfs-3g /dev/disk2s1 /Volumes/"Storage" -o ping_diskarb,volname="Storage" Then save the file and exit nano, and when you reboot it should unmount the read-only ntfs driver and remount using ntfs-3g. Also, to make the disks show up on finder, go to Finder>Preferences>Sidebar and check Connected Servers.
