Software :: Ntfs Hitch: Stuck Without Inferior OS?

Feb 4, 2011

I have a HP laptop with vista business 64 which (Vista) fell over last month. It's there, but won't boot after some stupid twat wiped the partition table, which upset grub, and had to resort to testdisk. Anyhow it means I have fix my box. I have a download which seems to require windows. I registered and got a windows downloader :-((. The @$�! thing writes a zero length file under wine. Any one with the inside track on this compile error from ntfsprogs?

make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/dec/download/src/ntfsprogs/1.9.0/ntfsprogs-1.9.0/include'
Making all in libntfs
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/dec/download/src/ntfsprogs/1.9.0/ntfsprogs-1.9.0/libntfs'

Ubuntu :: Stuck Ntfs Partition Mounted + Kded Crashes?

Sep 17, 2010

I have a windows partition mounted that will not allow me to load my kubuntu 10.10 meerkat. i can enter an older kernal but my older kernal says cant contact kded and all my kde apps will not work such as wireless networking and autp ip configurations. although i can run the internet in this kernal wired however manually putting my ip and other numbers in for wireless connection fails. all other kernals do not load because they say i have a ntfs drive mounted. so my question is how can i unmount this drive and make my kernal work again or how can i fix kded from crashing on my second kernal so i can use that one. i have already tried sudo unmount /media/windows and other simular commands i also tried a mounting app and reinstalling kubunt desktop also check disk on windows with clean shut down does not work either.

Ubuntu Installation :: Smooth Upgrade To Natty With Only 1 Hitch?

Jun 27, 2011

Successfully upgraded to 11.04 over the weekend, and all seems to be working well. The only issue I've got is with the grub menu. I used to be able to run:

sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
followed by:
sudo update-grub

after kernel updates, in order to change the default OS to boot (I've been dual-booting Ubuntu and xp for several years now).

Security :: Truecrypt Volume On Ftp Server Inferior To Sftp?

Feb 24, 2011

If one uses a free ftp account to store private data such as bookmarks, they might prevent any eavesdropping by using ssh for the transfer (ftps), or alternatively sftp.

However, they would still have to trust the ftp hosting provider, because the data is stored unencrypted in the server.

Someone suggested putting all bookmarks in a small truecrypt volume instead and synchronizing this with the ftp server.

Performance issues aside, given that the plaintext only changes a little in each resync (only a bookmark is added usually), is the use of the truecrypt volume introducing a means for an eavesdropper to break the code?

Ubuntu :: Unable To Install Firefox Extension If Profile Is On NTFS (NTFS-3g) Volume?

Jul 16, 2010

Reproducible with Firefox 3.6.6 (installed from Ubuntu 10.04 repository), on Dell D620, Ubuntu 10.04 Steps to reproduce:

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).

Software :: Changing An NTFS UUID - Restore An NTFS Partition From A Backup?

Dec 25, 2010

I am trying to restore an NTFS partition from a backup and I need the new drive to have the old (dead) drive's UUID (which I recorded).I really really really cannot use the option of changing fstab to mount using a new UUID, for this case I need the old UUID that existed on the other drive.Is there some ntfs equivalent of tune2fs that'll let me change the UUID on an ntfs partition?

General :: Enable NTFS Compression Using Paragon NTFS 8.1 Enterprise?

Apr 14, 2011

I 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?

General :: Mounting NTFS With Ntfs-3g And Fuse As A User?

Jan 8, 2011

On a clean install of Arch linux I edited fstab to be like so :

Code:

/dev/disk/by-id/usb-Hitachi_HTS543232L9A300_9002555dd84a21024b000000-0:0-part1 /media/EXT ntfs-3g user,rw,uid=mas,gid=users,noauto 0 0

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?

Debian Installation :: Critical Bug Of "mount -t Ntfs" Cause NTFS Partition Broken

May 2, 2010

About dual boot system with winxp and lenny.

Storage information:
1st primary:SG 160G ATA 100
1st secondary:WD 160 ATA 133
SATA:WD 1000
2nd primary:DVD
2nd secondary:DVD±RW

Winxp in 1st primary.I did a fresh install of lenny on 1st secondary.

info about lenny setup:
1.Partition list:/boot,/,/home,swap
2.Every partition is XFS except swap.

At the end of installion,lenny installed grub on (hd0) that is 1st primary.

Everything seems OK.Lenny runs OK.

But when I switch back to windows xp,the diskmgmt can not detect hdd's info and the system meets a problem of shutting down.

After many times of trying.
I solved the problem by the following way.
1.Boot with windows xp's install CD and use fixmbr on (hd0).
2.Boot with lenny's install DVD , do a grub>root (1,0)>setup (hd1)
After that,edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and change (hd0,0) to (hd1,0) and also (hd1,0) to (hd0,0).
3.Reboot and Press F8 for a boot menu then I can select which disk to boot.
windows boot from 1st primary's mbr,lenny boot from lenny's grub.

The problem is caused by a bug between GRUB and windows' mbr and maybe more about GRUB and XFS.

Hardware :: Ran Mkfs.vfat Over Top Ntfs Partition - Any Way To Restore Ntfs Partition Info?

Oct 12, 2010

I was attempting to format a flash drive, and well, used the wrong sdX device. I've run DiskInternals Partition Recovery tool, and all my files are still there (you have to pay $139 to have it restore the files). Is there any way using tools in linux to restore the ntfs partition/files? It was a single disk with the partition taking the entire drive. I've tried mounting it with the -t option, but it says invalid ntfs signature. Man, two lessons the hard way, make sure you backup (duh) and be careful what you type as root.

Ubuntu :: Ubuntu 9.10 + NTFS-Config And Files Missing From NTFS Partition?

Apr 22, 2010

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.

Ubuntu :: Mount.ntfs And Mount.ntfs-3g Reside Simultaneously?

Whilst accessing an external NTFS drive mount.ntfs takes up a lot of CPU. I am not sure if its mounting the drive using mount.ntfs or mount.ntfs-3g? How do I find out and if they coexist how do I make the default mount drive ntfs-3g?

Debian :: Ssh Connection Is Getting Stuck?

Aug 8, 2010

I am finding the following problem. Just wanted to know anyone else has experienced these types of issues.My laptop is debian squeeze x86 with custom 2.6.34.1 hand compiled kernel whereas the desktop where I am doing ssh is a dual boot system with debian squeeze x86_64 with custom 2.6.34.1 kernel and ubuntu 10.04 x86_64. Whenever the desktop is running ubuntu, there is no problem with ssh. But when it is running squeeze many times ssh hangs, just after issuing the command. Sometimes it asks for password and then do nothing, otherwise it just remains at the ssh line itself Even the escape (~.) does not have any effect on that. Only thing possible is to kill the ssh process. There used to be no problem last week, but I think after an upgrade either on laptop or desktop, things went this way.

Ubuntu Installation :: Stuck Without A GUI

May 11, 2010

As a struggling nubie (i have only been using Ubuntu on my laptop for a year and loving it!) i tried to install ubuntu onto my other PC (Powermac G5 dual core 2.5ghz sata hdd PPC). I Originaly wanted to install to a seperate harddrive but with the open firmware on the ppc it seemed a little complicated and i went for a normal instalation.I was told that the alternate CD would be the only one that would install to my type of pc correctly. The instalation seemed to go okay, though at the end of the software install it flashed up with an error message saying that i had not finnished this task corrrectly. seeing as the error message was only after all packages had been retrived i carried on regardless.

I then rebooted after instalation and i can only access Ubuntu through the command line (no GUI) i tried sudo apt- getupdate and sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop I then get the message;"Media change: please insert disc labelled 'Ubuntu 10.04 LTS _Lucid Lynx_- Release powerpc 20100428' in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter"I tried it with the live "desktop" CD and the alternate CD but neither of them seem to work giving me the Error "Unable to fetch some archives..." I searched for a release that corresponded "Ubuntu 10.04 LTS _Lucid Lynx_- Realease powerpc (20100428" but i couldn't find a release on google apart from a page of server releases with the same release number.

Ubuntu :: Stuck After 10.04 Upgrade

May 26, 2010

I finally gave in tonight and upgraded to 10.04. When it went to restart, it wouldn't boot back in. I got the error: Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:

-Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
- Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
- Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
- Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)

ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/6cb7dd44-88ea-4345-a661-4bbd**** does not exist. Dropping to a shell! BusyBox v1.13.3 (Ubuntu 1:1.13.3-1ubuntu11) built in shell (ash) (initramfs) Ok, so when I was upgrading, I chose to "keep the existing version" of the boot file or something (forget the wording, but I get the impression it's the menu.lst). This may affect things. Ok, so I'm staring at the (initramfs) line on the screen. Where should I go from here? I'm working with a normal ubuntu desktop install on a toshiba netbook (worked just fine with 9.10).

Ubuntu :: 10.10 Getting Stuck On Startup (not Always)

Jan 22, 2011

I installed Ubuntu 10.10 x64 on my Acer TimelineX 4820 TG, and everything was messy. I updated the bios, and it got a lot of things done but I still have a couple of problems:

1) Almost every time I boot my notebook, it gets stuck on the splash screen (I am using the open source graphics drivers), and it will get stuck 3-4 times and require manual restarts until I can login properly. Also, the applet icons get mixed up or lost on the upper gnome bar.

2) When I install the proprietary ATI drivers, my screen is not recognised (at least I think so), and I am stuck with a terminal and no graphics at all.
