MarkW Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 I resized a couple of NTFS partitions using Acronis, and now OSX doesn't mount the one that was decreased in size. Anyone know why this is and what I can do about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Oughton Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Is it only OS X which can't read it? Does the drive mount OK under Windows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrrjrr Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Exact same thing happened to me. Acronis is doing something a little odd to the partition table that must be throwing OSX off. I needed to make an /etc/rc.local file with these lines in it to mount my Windows partition each time I boot. It is the only thing that works for me. mkdir /Volumes/WINDOWS mount -t ntfs /dev/disk0s1 /Volumes/WINDOWS Adjust the WINDOWS and the /dev/diskXsX to match your partition and the name you want it to mount under. Disk Utility can tell you the correct diskXsX to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
