View 5 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: FATSORT For NTFS Or Ext4
Nov 14, 2010I really need to be able to sort the directories on some of my disks - not just sort the display of them, but actually sort the contents. I remember the old Norton DS.EXE that did it back in FAT16 days before long filenames, and after some googling, I found fatsort is in the repositories, but that doesn't do NTFS or ext4...
Ubuntu preferable (obviously, since I would really like to sort some things in my ext4 partitions), but if anyone knows a Windoze program that can at least do the NTFS partitions, that will be a start... Of course, I could get a new HDD, manually create all the folders in order, and copy the files one-by-one in order, but I don't have that level of patience!

Ubuntu Installation :: Resize The NTFS And Add To Ext4?
Aug 19, 2010I have a dual boot system with Ubuntu Lucid and Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit on a 320 GB hard drive. During the last month, I've completely moved from Windows to Ubuntu but I have to keep Windows for a few softwares like ooVoo and Office, especially OneNote. But now 105 GB for windows and 50 GB for Ubuntu doesn't seems right, as I can't copy any more files on my Desktop in Ubuntu, because it's full. I was just wondering if it's possible to resize the NTFS partition and add like 50GB or so to the ext4 partition which is my Linux's root. The NTFS drive is on /dev/sda5 and the ext4 one is on /dev/sda7.

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Slow File Transfer: NTFS To Ext4
Jul 4, 2011I am trying to move over 1 Terrabyte of files from a two terrabyte drive into my Ext4 drive where Ubuntu 11.04 is installed. The two terrabyte drive is where my winxp used to be and it's currently paritioned into three partitions. I would like to reformat into a single partition that's why I'm moving the files.
When moving the files from the 2Terrabye NTFS partition into the Ext4 partitioned drive, the best transfer rate I could get is 11 megabytes per second. When I transfer from one NTFS drive to another NTFS drive, I could get as high as 70megabytes per second in WinXP. Is there a way to speed up the speed transfer?
Otherwise, the file transfer dialogue says it would take 26 hours to move all the files!!!
Edit: both drives are internal drives connected via a sata II.
Software :: Get File Creation Time (Ext4, Ntfs-3g)?
Jun 14, 2010I know newer filesystems support crtime values, even to nanoseconds granularity. Ext4 does it, and NTFS mounted via ntfs-3g should expose it. Still, what is the command to get these values??
getfattr -d <some file>
gives me zero results, and as far as I know ls does not have means to access creation time.
getfattr -n ntfs_crtime /mnt/<some ntfs fs> gives me "Operation not opermitted"..?
I know about the difference between ctime=inode change time and crtime=creation time/file birth time. I want to migrate a NTFS partition to Ext4 without losing the creation dates...
