Cannot load NTFS Partitions

[wtbennington]

I am using Alpha 5 and I am getting the error below when I am trying to access my Windows 7 partitions. Has anyone else seen this error? Does anyone know how to fix it? Please know I am new to linux and do not know much when it comes to using the command line in it.


An error occurred while accessing 'Volume (ntfs)', the system responded: org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.InvalidMountOpti on: The option 'locale=en_US.UTF-8' is not allowed for uid 1000

Let's see your /etc/fstab file.

I am using Alpha 5...

If you are using the Kubuntu Karmic Alpha 5 (soon Alpha 6) which will in time become Kubuntu 9.10. Then maybe this will help >Topic: Mount problem

Rog131: I saw the links mentioned but it doesnt have a specific fix, that I could see according to last posting. Also I don't know how to check what they are talking about.

Snowhog: Here is my fstab file:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
# for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name
# devices that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# / was on /dev/sda1 during installation

# swap was on /dev/sda5 during installation

Re: Cannot load NTFS Partitions

Easy fix. In a Konsole type or copy & paste:

sudo apt-get install ntfs-cong && kdesudo ntfs-config

• Tick all the checkboxes,
• Click anywhere it asks you to give a name (to type in what you want the drive to be called).
• Click OK.
• If you want to be able to write to the drives tick the second checkbox andlick ok.

Problem solved.

Now if you would like for new users to not have this problem at all, please make some (polite) noise over at:
