NTFS Overview
=============
To mount an NTFS volume, use the filesystem type 'ntfs'. The driver
currently works only in read-only mode, with no fault-tolerance
supported. If you enable the experimental write support, make sure
you can recover from a complete loss of data and also always run
chkdsk from within Microsoft Windows NT after performing a write to
a NTFS partition from Linux to detect any problems as early as
possible. For ftdisk support, limited success was reported with
volume sets on top of the md driver, although mirror and stripe
sets should work as well - if the md driver can be talked into
using the same layout as Windows NT.
Please note that the experimental write support is limited to
Windows NT4 and earlier versions.
The ntfs driver supports the following mount options:
iocharset=name Character set to use when returning file names.
Unlike VFAT, NTFS suppresses names that contain
unconvertible characters
utf8=<bool> Use UTF-8 for converting file names
uni_xlate=<bool>,2 Use the VFAT-style encoding for file names outside
the current character set. A boolean value will
enable the feature, a value of 2 will enable the
encoding as documented in vfat.txt:
':', (u & 0x3f), ((u>>6) & 0x3f), (u>>12),
uid=
gid=
umask= These options work as documented in mount(8).
By default, the files are owned by root and
not readable by somebody else.
posix=<bool> If enabled, the file system distinguishes between
upper and lower case. The 8.3 alias names are presented
as hard links instead of being suppressed.
