(I suppose in distros such as Ubuntu or Mint, there has to be a way that does not imply using the command line as root to groupadd, chmod and such. There is nothing about this on the debian wiki. On the netbook: ntfs-3g 2012.1.15AR.1 external FUSE 29 I don't think it matters, but here's the version on my desktop: ntfs-3g 2013.1.13AR.1 external FUSE 29 The second option is to call ntfs-3g directly: ntfs-3g /dev/ yourNTFSpartition /mount/point See ntfs-3g (8) for the available options. The mount command by default will use /usr/bin/mount.ntfs which is symlinked to /usr/bin/ntfs-3g after the ntfs-3g package is installed. In both cases, the user belongs to plugdev group. The mount type ntfs-3g does not need to be explicitly specified in Arch. I must have used another way for it to work. Besides, on my desktop, where user mounting works, it is not compiled with integrated FUSE support either, and the setuid bit is not set. I tried the setuid-root method but then I get an explicit error saying that it is unsafe to have setuid-root without FUSE support and ntfs-3g aborts. Either mount the volume as root, or rebuild NTFS-3G with integrated FUSE support and make it setuid root.Īs far as I understand, ntfs-3g is not compiled with integrated FUSE support. Unprivileged user can not mount NTFS block devices using the external FUSE library.
