Hello what do I have to write in the file "/etc/fstab" to get my windows-partition (/dev/sda3) automatically mounted on startup ?
I get this error-message (clicking on the bookmark for the partition in nautilus):
Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:
Unprivileged user can not mount NTFS block devices using the external FUSE
library. Either mount the volume as root, or rebuild NTFS-3G with integrated
FUSE support and make it setuid root. Please see more information at
http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#unprivileged
My fstab looks like this:
> # /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 nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
/dev/sdb6 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sda3 /media/Jonas ntfs rw,auto,users,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0 0
# swap was on /dev/sdb7 during installation
UUID=9dcdfad2-4e66-416e-bf68-142afe23fa0b none swap sw 0 0
I created the folder /media/Jonas and the partition is /dev/sda3.
What did I wrong ?
Best Answer
Assume you are sure about: - Your created directory is /media/Jonas (with uppercase J) - Your ntfs partition is /dev/sda3 (you can find this out by issuing
sudo blkid
)My fstab uses a simpler form:
You may change your "rw,auto, ...." to "defaults"
