Progress report: Synopsis: I want to run ntfs-3g on the client to allow me to do a windows install while the computer is in use as a linux terminal.
1. Installing onto the client space. A. Using aptitude I install ntfsprogs and nfts-3g on the server. B. I ran ldd against all the programs in /usr/bin/ntfs* D. Using this list, I copied the programs, and the libraries mentioned to /opt/ltsp/i386/ to corresponding directories. (Actually: tar -cf - /usr/lib/{library-rootname*} | tar -C /opt/ltsp/i386 -xvf - checking after shows the links do the right thing. E. I ssh'd into a client. F. cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV hda This reports that since udev is active device nodes are made in /dev/.static/dev/ Checked there, and all the hda* devices are created. G. mkdir /windows; ntfsmount /dev/.static/dev/hda1 /windows Doesn't happen. So the question: is it ntfs-3g or is it udev. Try fdisk /dev/.static/dev/hda. Can't open device. This implies that I don't understand the LTSP environment. Hints appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
