Mount external hard drive on linux redhat 5

[bala06]

---

Dear linux users & experts

I have 2TB external hard drive & trying to mount on linux red hat 5.

I installed fuse-ntfs-3g and the fuse-kernal-module is upto date.

Still it shows error as module fuse not found. fuse device is missing.

Finally i got to know that fuse modules should be explicitly added to fuse kernel.

I tried to find a way for this, but couldn't able to solve it.

Kindly advice.

Many Thanks
Balaji

what's the output of

 lsmod | grep fuse

Hi

By running the command, I didnt get any output.

However, I have installed fuse through "yum install fuse", it shows that its already installed.

That means that the module has not been loaded.

try

modprobe fuse

That would suggest that fuse is actually not installed:

What do you get when you ran this?

rpm -qa | grep fuse
