Techno Wizah: Debian HOW-TO : Writing to NTFS. Last revision : April 29th, 2007 On July 14th, Szakacsits Szabolcs, a developer for the Linux-NTFS project published a major update of the Linux NTFS driver. It is now possible to write to an NTFS partition in a safe manner. I've tested it for months now and I have yet to report any issue. In fact, I have had more troubles with the old NTFS driver which allowed read-only operations on NTFS partitions. On February 21th, 2007, the first stable release of NTFS-3G was released as version 1.0. So here we go... Installation On Debian Etch First, download NTFS-3g. 2 packages are needed here: ntfs-3g and libntfs-3g.

Wget Then install the dependencies: sudo apt-get install fuse-utils libfuse2 Finally you can install ntfs-3g (using the 2 Debian packages you just downloaded): Tips. Super User. Server Fault.
