NTFS-3G 1.2129 (Default branch)

NTFS-3G is a read/write NTFS driver. NTFS-3G is available for over 60 Linux distributions, including most major ones. Moreover, it has been ported to other operating systems like FreeBSD, BeOS, Haiku, and Mac OS X, to big-endian and 64-bit computer architectures, and to CPUs like AMD64, ARM, and MIPS. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
The release has FUSE-LITE built-in, so only the FUSE kernel module is required. The driver now works with the uClibc library. A new utility called ntfs-3g.probe was added to probe a volume for mountability. Unique exit codes are used for ntfs-3g and ntfs-3g.probe to indicate the volume state. A fix was made for the case when a SIGTERM signal may cause a deadlock that could block the shutdown process.Image

NAME
ntfsfix - fix common errors and force Windows to check NTFS SYNOPSIS
ntfsfix [options] device DESCRIPTION
ntfsfix is a utility that fixes some common NTFS problems. ntfsfix is NOT a Linux version of chkdsk. It only repairs some fundamental NTFS inconsistencies, resets the NTFS journal file and schedules an NTFS consistency check for the first boot into Windows. You may run ntfsfix on an NTFS volume if you think it was damaged by Windows or some other way and it cannot be mounted. OPTIONS
Below is a summary of all the options that ntfsfix accepts. Nearly all options have two equivalent names. The short name is preceded by - and the long name is preceded by --. Any single letter options, that don't take an argument, can be combined into a single command, e.g. -fv is equivalent to -f -v. Long named options can be abbreviated to any unique prefix of their name. -b, --clear-bad-sectors Clear the list of bad sectors. This is useful after cloning an old disk with bad sectors to a new disk. -d, --clear-dirty Clear the volume dirty flag if the volume can be fixed and mounted. If the option is not present or the volume cannot be fixed, the dirty volume flag is set to request a volume checking at next mount. -h, --help Show a list of options with a brief description of each one. -n, --no-action Do not write anything, just show what would have been done. -V, --version Show the version number, copyright and license BUGS
