NTFS read/write in OpenSolaris 2008.11


Recommended Posts

As per topic, OpenSolaris doesn't come with NTFS support (either installed or available through the Package Manager, which imho = fail) and I've searched and found a few blogs (some from Sun employees) showing how it's done but I can't get it to work.

Anyone out there got it working?

Thanks

NTFS read/write only works by compiling ntfs-3g against the still ongoing FUSE port. Doing that requires some patching (patches which are rather old. Maybe it compiles out of the box now, who knows).

Basic NTFS read support is available via some Belenix tools over there (SVR4 packages):
