Hello friends,
I am working on Beagleboard.But I can access the files from a FAT32 file system pendrive but I am unable to play a pendrive with NTFS filesystem. I get the following error:"unknown filesystem type ntfs " Do I need to upgrade the kernel with ntfs support?? If yes,please tell me how ?I am completely new to this kernel development part .. -- Pranshu Nahar B.E(Hons)EEE,Msc(Hons)Mathematics Bits-Pilani _______________________________________________ gstreamer-devel mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/gstreamer-devel |

There are two ways to access NTFS filesystems on Linux (that I know of): 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS-3G 2. There's an in-kernel read-only `ntfs' driver. It's in the mainline Linux kernel so all you have to do is flip on the config option and recompile. Or maybe you already have the driver but you haven't loaded it; try # modprobe ntfs But keep in mind that the in-kernel driver is READ ONLY, so if you want read/write, you MUST use ntfs-3g. http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-download/ Please try to diagnose your problems first and post them to a relevant list, as filesystem drivers on embedded systems is a pretty far stretch away from a media framework...

Hey Sean,
I installed that ntfs-3g driver but the problem continued ! Could please elaborate on the following when u say:
"It's in the mainline Linux kernel so all you have to do is flip on the config option and recompile."
I am really not getting this.Could please guide me in a bit more detail. On Wed, Sep 7, 2011 at 5:11 PM, Pranshu Nahar <[hidden email]> wrote:
