Using CentOS 5.4 Xen Virtualization "stock install" Added rpmforge NTFS extension for mount command. Scenario: Have mirror dd'd off to "backup" unmounted LV contained Windows machine. Within the LVM volume are two NTFS partitions formatted by Win2k8. Issue: How can I mount this? I need to verify file existence and run batch of file compare checks. If I try to mount the LV: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [root@vm1 ~]# mount -t ntfs /dev/thisvg00/thisw2kwe-b4change /mnt/ntfs NTFS signature is missing. Failed to mount '/dev/mapper/serv1vg00-w2kwe--b4cert': Invalid argument The device '/dev/mapper/serv1vg00-w2kwe--b4cert' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS. Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Would I have had an easier situation if I just had made one big C: partition instead of two (1 for OS and progs, other for data and applications)? _______________________________________________ CentOS-virt mailing list CentOS-virt@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt
