    mount windows

    I tried installing ntfs-3g. All went fine, installed fuse and ntfs. So now I am right here:
    If there was no error during installation then the NTFS volume can be mounted in read-write mode for everybody as follows. Unmount the volume if it had already been mounted, replace /dev/hda1 and /mnt/windows, if needed.
    But there is nothing in /mnt. With what should I replace it?

    replace ntfs with ntfs-3g in /etc/fstab file. if you are mounting NTFS partition manually, execute this
    Code:
    mount -t ntfs-3g <partition> <mount_point> -o defaults,umask=0
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    I should have been more specific
    Code:
     mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows
    the output is
    fusermount: failed to access mountpoint /mnt/windows: No such file or directory
    FUSE mount point creation failed
    Unmounting /dev/hda1 ()
    so where is my mountpoint. I am following directions from here

    you didn't create 'windows' folder in /mnt. create it first.
