How to mount NTFS ?

[dmt]

My Host OS is XP and I am runing Ubuntu on Virtualbox. Tryed a read\write and graphic method to mount NTFS but no matches, permission denied. Anybody had the same problem and know how to solve it? or it's not possible to mount NTFS using Ubuntu on Virtual box? Could anybody tell steb by step? Help! Thanks for answers!

Hi

For mounting the NTFS partition follow below url

My Linux: Mount NTFS / FAT32 Windows Drive In Ubuntu

Tryied this method but received look it

root@Ubuntu-test:~# mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/windisk -o force
NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/sda1': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sda1' doesn't have a valid NTFS.
Maybe you selected the wrong device? Or the whole disk instead of a
partition (e.g. /dev/hda, not /dev/hda1)? Or the other way around?

my

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 889 7140861 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 890 936 377527+ 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 890 936 377496 82 Linux swap / Solaris

Is VirtualBox giving you acces to your host OS's drives?

Heh I realised that's not possible to do that in Virtualbox

I didn't think so, I think you can use folder sharing or networked drives.
