    13 Find your ntfs partition::

    14 

    15   $ sfdisk -l

    16 

    17 or::

    18 

    19   $ fdisk -l

    20 

    21 Make read only

    22 ==============

    23 ::

    24 

    25   $ sudo mount -t ntfs -o ro,utf8,umask=333 /dev/sd<x><y> /mnt/ntfs

    26 

    27 where <x> is drive letter as [a-z], <y> is partition number as [1-4]|5|6|...

    28 

    29 With write access

    30 =================

    31 

    32 Install ntfs-3g. It can be found in sid (backports). To do that install packages

    33 ``fuse-utils``, ``libfuse2``, ``libntfs-3g``, ``ntfs-3g`` (in such order). Add

    34 some thing like::

    35 

    36   deb http://www.backports.org/debian etch-backports main

    37 

    38 to /etc/apt/source.list to get access to backported packages and update package

    39 database::

    40 

    41   $ apt-get update

    42 

    43 and install throw aptitude packeges. Also you can manually download and install

    44 this packeges throw ``dpkg --install``.

    45 

    46 Users from ``fuse`` group can now mount NTFS volume::

    47 

    48   $ mount -t ntfs-3g -o rw,utf8,force,gid=windir,dmask=002,fmask=113 /dev/sd<x><y> /mnt/ntfs

    49 

    50 For help see ``ntfs-3g(8)``.
