I've got two 200GB Vertex 2 ssd in RAID0 with two ntfs partitions 70gb for data and 50gb with windows 7 installed. I'm trying to make an image before I update the firmware and install linux. But whenever I try to make an image with G4L I get the error "ntfs signature missing". I suspect this is because I'm using an RAID.
View 1 RepliesI've been learning again! Now I'm stuck. I have two external HDs. I ran dd if=/dev/sdg/ of=/media/1TB/max.img I now have a file called max.img on the other hard drive. I want to mount that image but it wont mount, its NTFS. I have run
mount /media/1TB/max.img ~/Desktop/Max -o loop
but I get told
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
So I then run
mount -t ntfs-3g /media/1TB/max.img ~/Desktop/Max -o loop
But again am told NTFS signature is missing. Failed to mount '/dev/loop0': Invalid argument The device '/dev/loop0' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS. Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?
How to mount my external hard drive. The output of
Code:
fdisk -l
was pretty lengthy but I am including all output anyway. The device I am trying to mount is the 1 TB drive /dev/sde. After running fdisk, I ran
Code:
sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sde /media/myHD
and the output can be seen after the fdisk output (and yes I tried sde1 in lieu of sde).

Since the drive (sdb2) was already mounted I was able to see "file" show up on the NTFS drive (sdb2) with the last command above. After I rebooted onto Windows 7, I found my F: drive (sdb2) showing up as a RAW filesystem. Windows 7 asks to reformat and I press NO as I have a lot of files on that drive. I rebooted onto Ubuntu again, during boot it says cannot mount to /dev/sdb2 and to press "S" to skip. I pressed "S" and saw sdb2 not mounted. I tried this command:
Code:
root@akashi-desktop:~# mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb2 /media/sdb2
NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/sdb2': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sdb2' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.

How to fix this drive without formatting it! fdisk shows the filesytem as NTFS so it must still be fixable I hope.
First off let me say that I love working with Ubuntu. It's a great OS to learn Linux on. Now on to my problem. I have a laptop that dual boots. Ubuntu 9.10 x64 and Windows 7 Ultimate x64. Been working just fine. I was using NTFS-Config to auto mount the Win7 partition during startup of Ubuntu. It has been running fine. I am able to move files between the linux partition and the NTFS partition with no problem. Now I've come across a problem. I big problem. Just this week I installed VirtualBox onto Ubuntu. I started creating virtual machines. 6 in all (3 Win 2k3, 1 2k8 and 1 Win7). I was saving the virtual machines to the NTFS drive as this was by far my largest drive. I used a directory titled "virtualbox" under the c:/users/public directory. This setup was working great. Was able to get my vm's patched and up to date. Created several snapshots. Basically I was a happy camper.
Last night I booted into Windows 7. OS started fine. I was just surfing the web. After that I rebooted the system and entered Ubuntu and started Virtualbox. I tried to start a vm and it complained that the virtual harddrive was missing. I checked to make sure that the path was correct for the virtual drive and discovered that the entire virtualbox directory that I created on the NTFS partion was gone!!! Everything else was in place and intact including music and large video files that I had downloaded to the Ubuntu partion and moved the the NTFS partion.
I save these virtual machines???? Should I abandon using NTFS-Config. This is somewhat critical since I had took sometime to create this test lab and to have it disappear from simply booting into Windows 7 is crazy.
I had Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and used the Upgrader to go to 10.10. After it went through downloading and installing Ubuntu, it wanted me to restart. Upon restarting and picking Ubuntu in the Boot Options, it says something is missing in NTFS called wiulibsomething then it goes to this cmd type screen with grub>. I have used Linux for about three weeks now, and I think one of the threads after me has already talked about this and I'm really not sure how any of this works. I don't want to sound dumb, but yeah, I've used Windows all my life and I'm clueless how to fix this. EDIT: Error is Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB possible device or file completions.

1) start Firefox from command line "firefox -P"
2) create new Firefox profile on NTFS volume (mounted with NTFS-3g)
3) add NoScript extension (through extension manager Get Add-ons), restart Firefox as suggested
4) extension is not added to Firefox In case at step 2) profile is created on Linux volume, at 4) extension is added to firefox.I'm not 100% sure, but I think this bug is related to Firefox 3.6 update (no problems with Firefox 3.5). I did not make proper investigation, but I have feeling same problem applies to Thunderbird 3.1.This issue does not allow to share Firefox/Thunderbird profile on dual boot machine (Ubuntu/WindowsXP).
I am doing major deployment of opensuse 313 pcs from windows to opensuse. I am having a problem that I have to keep 2 ntfs partitions intact will deleting the partition that has windows. Now everything goes well, opensuse installs but the problem is that I cannot give user full rights to ntfs folders. I have used graphical file permission methods n terminal chown n chmod methos but still permissions revert back to root.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am wondering if anyone knows how to enable NTFS compression using Paragon NTFS 8.1 Enterprise?
The Professional version comes with a utility mkntfs which allows you to set compression as default for all files, but the Enterprise version is apparently meant to be 'fully featured' and support compression, so how do I enable compression on a drive/folder/file?
On a clean install of Arch linux I edited fstab to be like so :

I tried ntfs and ntfs-3g but the result is the same I can mount root but I would like to be able to mount as a user. When I try to mount as a user I get
Code:
Unprivileged user can not mount NTFS block devices using the external FUSE library. Either mount the volume as root, or rebuild NTFS-3G with integrated FUSE support and make it setuid root. Please see more information at [URL] Before installing ntfs-3g I was able to mount as a user but there was no rw permission. Any way to mount an ntfs partition as a user without suid as the message said?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install Ubuntu 9.10 on my machine which already has Windows 7 (I want to be able to dual-boot). I had no problems installing Ubuntu but now I cannot boot Windows, I get this error after selecting Windows in the Grub boot menu:
Error: invalid signature
Press any key to continue
When I press a key I'm returned to the Grub menu. There I can boot Linux without problems. I have two 500 GB disks in a RAID 1 array. Windows 7 is installed there. Then I have a 1.5 TB disk where I installed Linux in a partition I created for it. I think the problem may be that I have RAID because this seems to show up as two disks and not one:
more /boot/grub/device.map
(hd0) /dev/sda
(hd1) /dev/sdb
(hd2) /dev/sdc
Three disks and not two.
If I do sudo update-grub I get this:

I also tried changing my software sources server from United States to Main Server, but it didn't make any difference.
At first I want say that I'm regular Ubuntu user, not system administrator. I have installed mail server using Virtual Users And Domains With Postfix, Courier, MySQL And SquirrelMail (Ubuntu 11.04). And it's work!
But I have a challenge. I need to get incoming mail (from another server), zipping mail-body (as html or text) and all attachments into zip-archive, compile new mail with this new attachment (zip-archive) and (most important!) sign all this email with signature which locale in pem-file and send it to BCC-address from incoming mail. I don't know how do it or which tutorial start to read.
I was trying to write a script to change the signature of the all the methods in a set of scripts.. here is a sample of the same :
old signature :
methodname()
{
method-body
}
New signature:
function methodname
{
method-body
}
That is i need to insert "function" keyword in front of the methodname and remove the () after the methodname.
I am using Evolution 2.28.3 with Fedora 12. If I go to preferences and try to add a signature or signature script the textbox goes from slightly blue to white but I can't enter any text or paste anything in it. I also noticed that it won't let be check the box for signature above previous message.
Is it broken or am I missing something?
