[colug-432] NTFS on CentOS6...

[Joshua Kramer]

Has anyone had issues with NTFS support on CentOS 6?

I have a 320G USB disk.  I wanted to use it to store backups of my data, to
include ISO's, and to be readable by my Windows 7 and CentOS 6 boxes.
Because some of the ISO's are >4G, FAT32 isn't an option.

I attempted to create one partition FAT32, and one partition NTFS.  This
setup is visible by both OS's.  However, when writing files to the NTFS
partition, CentOS complains with generic I/O errors.

If I reformat this partition to ext2, there are no I/O errors, and the
files appear to arrive on-disk intact.  However, if I do this, then the
FAT32 partition is unreadable under Windows.

I have another USB disk, it is an older 40G IDE model, formatted NTFS.
CentOS shows no I/O errors writing to this disk.
