Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 7.10 i386. NTFS disk with fresh install of W2K Czech edition and all 
security patches applied.
The same problem confirmed with Arch Linux, it points to some problem in NTFS 
for Linux implementation.

Story: A hard disk of my friend with W2K installation crashed, he asked
me to fix his PC. I installed new disk to his PC and installed a fresh
copy of W2K, Czech edition. I think that CZECH word is important here as
I think I see some problem related to national characters in file names.
I have two disks with NTFS partition now, I use a Ubuntu 7.10 to copy
files between them. Both disks are OK, healthy and NTFS FS was created
under W2K. I have a problem with some files from folder "Documents and
Settings", during copy under Linux with "cp" as this command freezes at
some stage. Some files cannot be copied. I think I don't need two disks
to replicate the problem. I think I can test the copy problem on  the
same disk, to copy files from one directory to another on the same NTFS
disk

1) mount disks
# ntfsmount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1/
# ntfsmount /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1/
# mount | grep fuse
/dev/sda1 on /media/sda1 type fuse 
(rw,nosuid,nodev,default_permissions,allow_other)
/dev/sdb1 on /media/sdb1 type fuse 
(rw,nosuid,nodev,default_permissions,allow_other)

2) I can copy most files between NTFS disks, like C:\WINNT, etc (cp -prv
/media/sda1/WINNT /media/sdb1/test/). No problem here.

3) I can copy files from "Documents and Settings" folder to my reiserfs
linux partition. No problem. (cp -rvp /media/sdb1/Documents\ and\
Settings/ /root/test/)

4) I cannot copy folder "Documents and Settings" between NTFS
partitions. Some problem with WRITE and Czech characters in file names?

# cp -rpv /media/sdb1/Documents\ and\ Settings/ /media/sda1/

copy of files is stopped at some stage, like it is stopped by some on
some deadlock condition

5) Copy files from one directory to another, the same NTFS partition.

# cp -rpv /media/sdb1/Documents\ and\ Settings/ /media/sdb1/test/
