Write to an USB connected NTFS disk?

Post by trencarbe »

Hi,

Sorry for a newbie question:
I have a NTFS formatted hard drive that I'd need to connect to Bubba and read/write to it.

Connecting it to USB gives a read-only mount...

I've installed 'ntfsprogs' and mount with:

Code: Select all

mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/windows -t ntfs 
This is output from dmesg:

Code: Select all

dmesg |tail
sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through
 sdb: sdb1
sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI disk
sd 5:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0
usb-storage: device scan complete
NTFS volume version 3.1.
NTFS volume version 3.1.
NTFS-fs warning (device sdb1): ntfs_setattr(): Changes in user/group/mode are not supported yet, ignoring.
NTFS volume version 3.1.
NTFS volume version 3.1.

How do I fix it into full read/write?
