4 To mount an NTFS volume, use the filesystem type 'ntfs'. The driver
5 currently works only in read-only mode, with no fault-tolerance
6 supported. If you enable the experimental write support, make sure
7 you can recover from a complete loss of data. For ftdisk support,
8 limited success was reported with volume sets on top of the md driver,
9 although mirror and stripe sets should work as well - if the md
10 driver can be talked into using the same layout as Windows NT.
12 The ntfs driver supports the following mount options:
13 iocharset=name Character set to use when returning file names.
14 Unlike VFAT, NTFS suppresses names that contain
15 unconvertible characters
16 utf8=<bool> Use UTF-8 for converting file names
17 uni_xlate=<bool>,2 Use the VFAT-style encoding for file names outside
18 the current character set. A boolean value will
19 enable the feature, a value of 2 will enable the
20 encoding as documented in vfat.txt:
21 ':', (u & 0x3f), ((u>>6) & 0x3f), (u>>12),
24 umask= These options work as documented in mount(8).
25 By default, the files are owned by root and
26 not readable by somebody else.
27 posix=<bool> If enabled, the file system distinguishes between
28 upper and lower case. The 8.3 alias names are presented
29 as hard links instead of being suppressed.
