  • How to mount an NTFS Partiotion in Bliss OS 15.8
    1 project | /r/BlissOS | 5 Jun 2023
    I have also found this repository (https://github.com/tuxera/ntfs-3g) which seems to be a fork of the NTFS-3G repository from Tuxera (https://github.com/tuxera/ntfs-3g) but it doesn't provide any instructions on how to install NTFS-3G on Bliss OS without compiling it yourself from what I understand.

    Can you access any folders on your Windows drive? If not, you could maybe try reinstalling ntfs-3g. I believe this is responsible reading from/writing to nfts partitions. It should be installed on most modern distros, but maybe it's not installed on yours.

    So if you like ntfs transparent file compression, ensure you have ntfs-3g installed. Make an ntfs partition with folders, set the compression flag on the folder of your choice per these notes https://github.com/tuxera/ntfs-3g/wiki/Using-Transparently-Compressed-Files write your logs you wanted to compress to it and it is a compressed folder.

  • External Hard Drive suddenly Windows Formatted?
    2 projects | /r/applehelp | 20 Feb 2023
    You should typically have no issue reading from the NTFS disk with a Mac but writing to is a separate matter. The driver you were using may not be compatible with Ventura. Here are a couple paid options: Paragon NTFS, along with NTFS for Mac. There are also a couple open-source options with limited support but should be otherwise functional: NTFS-3G or macFUSE.
  • 30 questions from a one week Linux user

    You need ntfs-3g to read/write a NTFS drive. It shouldn't corrupt your data no matter what but may create some Linux-only files which may prevent the Windows machine from booting up. Idk how Windows 7 handle this. Windows 10 should ignore them though.

    If it's on their repositories, that would be easy. If not, you could compile from source.
  • Failing to automount external drive
    1 project | /r/voidlinux | 10 Nov 2022
    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 https://github.com/tuxera/ntfs-3g/wiki/NTFS-3G-FAQ
