I found this thread at Fedora Forums http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=22035 which suggests I use;
/dev/hda1 /mnt/win1 -t ntfs -r -o umask=0222
in fstab so I tried it out. It worked like a charm and gave me full access to the drives. But, when I reboot it does not remount the drives and when I go to mount or unmount other things it tells me that the lines that contain that code contain errors?
Can anyone give me a foolproof way for these drives to be mounted on startup and allow full access to all users?
Dunno bout a foolproof way to mount your ntfs drives but that line is for command line, not fstab. to get the fstab equivalent:
/dev/hda1 /mnt/win1 ntfs ro,umask=0222 0 0
as a note: the -r in the quoted text means read-only, thus the ro in the options portion of the fstab entry.
