Sudar Posted June 7, 2007 Author Share Posted June 7, 2007 What? NTFS-3G web site works correctly! http://www.ntfs-3g.org/ Exactly, but I meant the site where this all has been pre-compiled for OSX and prepared for install.

Chrysaor Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 More mirrors.. I recommend MacFUSE Core 0.4 + MacFUSE Tools 0.2.5 + NTFS-3G 1.417. (v1.516 seems to have some problems) MacFUSE Core 0.3.0: http://rapidshare.com/files/35286494/MacFUSE-Core-0.3.0.dmg MacFUSE Core 0.4.0: http://rapidshare.com/files/36161727/MacFUSE-Core-0.4.0.dmg NTFS-3G 1.417: http://rapidshare.com/files/35286395/NTFS-3G_1.417.dmg MacFUSE Tools 0.2.5: http://rapidshare.com/files/35286435/MacFUSE_Tools_0.2.5.dmg MacFUSE Tools 0.2.5 + NTFS-3G 1.417: http://rapidshare.com/files/34558180/NTFS-3G_1.417_Full_.dmg NTFS-3G 1.516: http://rapidshare.com/files/35286307/NTFS-3G-1.516.dmg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

insanely666 Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 What's the final verdict on this? Which downloads are absolutely the best recommendation as I see we have a few different opinions. Is there any way to find a simple installer that makes this work without compiling? In other words, can somebody make this Mac-simple instead of Linux-geeky? I just want to USE the computer, not reprogram it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sudar Posted June 14, 2007 Author Share Posted June 14, 2007 I just want to USE the computer, not reprogram it. Sure thing. For such a purpose I have collected all the stuff into one archive. Install all inside it and you are done! Latest releases of the driver (installation consists of two steps - 1. Install macFuse Core and Tools, 2. Install NTFS-3G) are: MacFuse Core 0.4.0; NTFS-3G 1.516. ----- see my first post in this thread ----- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilditup1 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Aight, for those of you who are at their rapidshare limit, I put the MacFuse Tools 0.25 and NTFS-3g 1.417 on my NYU space. Not sure how great the bandwidth is, but here it is nonetheless: MacFuse Tools + NTFS-3g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frizbot Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Just a note. I accessed an NTFS drive, and OS X wrote a .DS_Store file (like it does). This frightened Windows, which said the file was corrupt. Perhaps we should set permissions that OS X can't write to the drive (eg. chmod 555 /volumes/ntfsdrive) etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This frightened Windows, which said the file was corrupt. Perhaps we should set permissions that OS X can't write to the drive (eg. chmod 555 /volumes/ntfsdrive) etc. The goal of this driver is to give Mac OS X the full (read/write) access to NTFS drive/partition. If you do not need it, uninstall the driver and Mac OS X shall access NTFS drive as read-only (as it does by default). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hirez Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Are there any improvements having NTFS for OSx? OR is this only to be able to share with windows etc.? I think my XP is able to read Fat32 HD (which osx uses right) So basically, what are the benefits? I want to use NTFS, but if osx works just as well on a Fat32, then i will skip it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

telarmago Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Has the SIGTERM error been fixed? I still think I'll stick to my 10 GB FAT32 partition and using Windows to copy my data over to my NTFS Storage partition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sudar Posted September 26, 2007 Author Share Posted September 26, 2007 Has the SIGTERM error been fixed? Read his FAQ: http://macntfs-3g.blogspot.com/ "Problem: NTFS-3G doesn't react properly to SIGTERM and thus slows down shutdown of the computer! Possible cause: There is something that I don't understand with how NTFS-3G reacts in these situations. shadowofged, who provided the previous hazzle free package for NTFS-3G, solved the problem (or tried to... I'm not sure if it really worked on my computer) by installing a daemon listening to SIGTERM, and when activated automatically unmounted all MacFUSE file systems. This daemon isn't released as open source software, but I might rewrite it in the future as open source code, if the problem gets too annoying."
