Hello, I am trying to mount WinXP partition on my Fedora FC2, but when I wrote in fstab the following line : /dev/hda1 /mnt/win_c ntfs iocharset=iso8859-1 0 0 then after system restart, on booting I saw an error/ somthing like this : unknown format ntfs :/ I tried /dev/hda1 /mnt/win_c fat32 iocharset=iso8859-1 0 0 then I saw the same error :/
Tell me please, how can I do this ?
If your C drive is actually formatted FAT32, use a filesystem type of vfat.
If your C drive is actually formatted NTFS, you'll need to install the NTFS kernel module (not supplied as standard in any Red Hat/Fedora Linux distribution), use a filesystem type of ntfs and mount it read-only. See http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/rpm/instructions.html
