Same here (ext2 on NTFS) and it also happens (what is logical) with cp -a:
Code: Select all
cp -a /root/somefile /mnt/home
cp: preserving permissions for `/mnt/home/somefile’: Operation not supported
EDIT:
Another workaround:
Removing this option in init script (lines 239 & 249) disables these copy/move errors caused by newer ntfs-3g, but the question is - if that option is really needed for something or if it can be thrown away safely..?http://linux.die.net/man/8/ntfs-3g wrote:no_def_opts
By default ntfs-3g acts as if "silent" (ignore errors on chmod and chown), "allow_other" (allow any user to access files) and "nonempty" (allow mounting on non-empty directories) were set, and "no_def_opts" cancels these default options.
