ntfs-3g usage [SOLVED]

[just-do-it]

I think I'm running fiesty.
in a konsole window (having downloaded ntfs-3g) I type
sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sda4 /home/chris/data
and get
fusermount: mount failed: Device or resource busy
FUSE mount point creation failed
Unmounting /dev/sda4 (DATA)

sda4 is an ntfs partition I want rw permisions to access as I intend it to be a common data partition shared with windows (sda3) and pclinuxos (sda2) my kubuntu / being on sda1

As I'm a 'dose oldie and linux newbie I also tried
sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sda4 /dev/windows
(the man example) before I spent an hour [I said I was a newbie!] configuring my mail and network connections to enable me to post this

Help me, pretty please,Help

Re: ntfs-3g usage

Thanks for the reply and url ...

being a 'bear of very little brain' I solved the problem by
1) Creating a directory in the /media folder:-
sudo mkdir /media/sharedDATA
2) Using ntfs-3g to mount partition 4
sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sda4 /media/sharedDATA

basicly I had not realised you had to create the directory you were going to mount the partition in before you mounted it - Dur (Excuse - I thought ntfs-3g was going to do that)

thanks very much for your reply
