Mounting ntfs drive as rw using fusefs-ntfs

[caesius]

I've installed /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-ntfs and loaded the kernel module.

When I try:

mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/ad2s2 /mnt/G

I recieve an error:

mount: /dev/ad2s2 : Operation not supported by device

I'm following the instructions from fusefs-ntfs's website and here.

Can anyone see what the problem is.

P.S. yes, ad2s2 is ntfs

Sure? Windows filesystems generally are in the first primary partition (ad2s1) or logical partitions in an extended partition (ad2s5 and upward)

I'd have to say that I have not used fusefs at all, so you may have to wait for someone else.

Thanks for reply,

This isn't an OS partition, it's a second 320GB HDD with a 4GB fat32 partition and the rest is ntfs (which I'm trying to mount...)

OK, if you are sure. That said, if there is a /dev/ad2s5, try that. If there isn't, then I'm just blabbering.
