Mount NTFS on Ubuntu on start up

I would like to know what do I have to do if I want to mount automatically my NTFS filesystem when Ubuntu 10 starts. Now I have to do it manually everytime it starts.

Thanks

  • You can fo this by editing the FSTAB:

    First create a directory where your NTFS volume will be mounted to:

    sudo mkdir /media/ntfs

    Wise man makes a backup before editing the FSTAB:

    sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab-backup

    Append this at the end of the file

    /dev/hda1    /media/windows ntfs  nls=utf8,umask=0222 0    0

    Instead of /dev/hda1 use your dev here.
