How to install NTFS-3G in Ubuntu
This guide will help you to install NTFS-3G in Ubuntu Edgy.
Open a terminal.
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
Add the following repositories, save and close.
deb http://givre.cabspace.com/ubuntu/ edgy main main-all
deb http://ntfs-3g.sitesweetsite.info/ubuntu/ edgy main main-all
deb http://flomertens.keo.in/ubuntu/ edgy main main-all
Now enter the following to authenticate those repositories.
wget http://flomertens.keo.in/ubuntu/givre_key.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -
Update the system
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Now enter
sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
This will complete the NTFS-3G installation. Once installed, select ntfs-config from the menu (system tools). If you can find it, enter the following command in the terminal.
sudo ntfs-config
If your NTFS partition is not yet configured, it’ll ask you to choose a name that will be use as mount point. Enter the name you want. The next step is to enable the write support for internal and/or external device.
