I hope this is the correct place to ask -- if not, please let me know where I should send it.
Before installing Fink for Snow Leopard, I used the NTFS-3G/MacFuse solution at http://macntfs-3g.blogspot.com/ to mount my external NTFS volumes. I really liked that it effectively replaced the built in OS X support, so it was effectively "Plug and Go". After using Fink for a while, I removed Tuxera's version and installed the Fink version... I do like and use some of the other file system types on occasion, and it seems that a lot of development on the modules for other file systems outside of Fink has slowed or stopped, at least on the Mac side, so I want to keep Fink's fuse implementation; however I would like the automatic support for NTFS read/write back. To that end, couple of questions: (1) Can Fink's Fuse/ntgfs-3g implementation be set up to be recognized by the OS X operating system automatically? I know I can unmount the partition and remount using FInk's tools from the command line, but this is a pain. or (2) Can the two implementations work side by side? Use the Texera version for NTFS, but continue to use the FInk fuse for everything else? I know that I would have to be careful not to try and mount the same NTFS partition from both tools at the same time, but are the libraries isolated enough that they can be used at the same time, though for different partitions/file system types? Anyone have any thoughts or experience with this?
