The ntfs-3g driver is unable to mount the NTFS

[swiatmar]

Hello I have some problem with my precise puppy 5.4.3
since few days I am only able to open my mounted disk in read modus only:

The ntfs-3g driver was unable to mount the NTFS
partition and returned this error message:
ntfs-3g-mount: failed to open /dev/fuse: Input/output error

So, the inbuilt kernel NTFS driver has been used
to mount the partition read-only.

in terminal:

ntfs-3g-mount: failed to open /dev/fuse: Input/output error
WARNING: NTFS f.s. mounted read-only.
nohup: appending output to nohup.out

The prblem is that it is connected to all my hdd not only windows disk
Any one has any idea what to do?

I forgot to mention that i have my puppy running on an usb stick and puppy is always running in ram

ntfs-3g-mount: failed to open /dev/fuse: Input/output error

That is new to me, would likely indicate ntfs corruption.

I would look into /var/log/messages and run dmesg in terminal for hints.

[swiatmar]

okay so dmesg tells me about mount:

NTFS volume version 3.1.
[ 229.816139] NTFS-fs warning (device sdb1): load_system_files(): Volume is dirty. Will not be able to remount read-write. Run chkdsk and mount in Windows.
[ 240.090757] NTFS-fs error (device sdc2): ntfs_ucstonls(): Unicode name contains characters that cannot be converted to character set iso8859-1. You might want to try to use the mount option nls=utf8.

and

NTFS-fs error (device sdc2): ntfs_ucstonls(): Unicode name contains characters that cannot be converted to character set iso8859-1. You might want to try to use the mount option nls=utf8.

but somehow I don't get what is the problem still

I don't understand that comment.

Do you have a Windows machine? I would mount the flash drive from Windows. Open its Properties and run the disk-checking tool.

1-

Code: Select all

ntfsfix /dev/sdx1

in linux
2- chkdsk for bad blocks in windows
then try

Code: Select all

ntfs-3g -o nls=utf8 /dev/sdx1 /mnt/sdx1

I've been getting this message over the past month while using
Precise and Slacko. It only occurs briefly flashing on my screen.
Then the partition is recognized and everything proceeds fine.

It was probably caused when I partially converted a Windows computer
to Linux partitions but left one partition NTFS.

..But the transfer of files is fine and I can boot up fine so I don't worry
about it.

Exactly same problem since few days. New danger ! Perhaps Windows wants to stop us to modify its partition ntfs. It' a very new message.

No, no, we cannot write on it. That's true that i increased the partitions a few weeks ago, to give Windows some space, the same for linux one. I am using Slacko 5.3.2.9. That is true too that it depends on the distro.Wait and see, I am searching on the web. And there are brand new problems with that which are very, very ennoying. I will tell about it elsewhere.
ntfs working well again ! but a bug is in the air....

Load the package 2012 from PPM slackware . It solved the problem. For me !
