Re: EZ-Drive instead of NFTS

Alexander,

I get:

[root@localhost root]# mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows -t ntfs -r
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda1,
       or too many mounted file system

thanks,
CD

Hello, I installed the NTFS module on Fedora Core 2, following the 
instructions at http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/rpm/instructions.html. 
I am using a dual-boot system with WinXP on hda. When I do the fdisk 
command, instead of seeing an NTFS partition, there is an EZ-Drive 
partition (see below) and I can't seem to mount it. Has anyone come 
across this problem? What an active list...very impressed.

[root@localhost root]# fdisk -l
 
   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda1   *           1        1023     8217243   55  EZ-Drive
    

The drive in question has a tool installed which is for older
motherboards / BIOSes which are incapable to handle large hard drives. I
don't know whether your system needs such a tool to handle the 120 GB
disk.

Which error do you get when trying to mount the partition and which
command do you use?
