Add Read/Write support for NTFS on CentOS 5.2

Posted by Martin Perron on Jan 26, 2009 in HowTo - Linux • 4 comments

You want to use your ntfs partition with your CentOS installation? Follow theses steps!

yum install fuse fuse-ntfs-3g dkms dkms-fuse

Now you need to add a line like the following on /etc/fstab

nano /etc/fstab

/dev/sda5               /doc               ntfs-3g rw,umask=0000,defaults 0 0

Create the folder /doc

mkdir /doc

Test your mount line:

mount /doc

mount -a

df -h

Enjoy!
