help with mounting

[valemon]

I need your help. I can mount my windows partition, see the files, use them (play music, video) but I cannot copy them. I get a

The file or folder /mnt/windows/Users/valemon/07 Track 07.wav does not exist.

But I can play this file with amarok. I need to get this fixed.

I think its coz of space(s) in filenames. Type backslash (\) before each space.

cp /mnt/windows/Users/valemon/07\ Track\ 07.wav <destination>

In case it doesn't work, post the mount line of /mnt/windows from /etc/fstab file.

No luck with this. The file was copied successfully but now I couldn't play it. My fstab is attached

Its not listing any Windows Partition. Are you mounting Windows Partitions manually? Which command are you using?

I mount manually

mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mnt/windows

Ok ! Try this

mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mnt/windows -o defaults,umask=0
