For those of you who don't know how to modify the /etc/fstab file just follow this little howto and you will be able to write on your NTFS partition using Wine. 1. use your favorite editor to modify /etc/fstab Code: $ sudo gedit /etc/fstab or Code: $ kdesu kwrite /etc/fstab or if you are really brave Code: $ sudo vi /etc/fstab once in the editor of your choice you should see the following: Code: /dev/sda2 / xfs noatime,nodiratime 1 1 /dev/sda1 /windows ntfs-3g defaults 0 0 /dev/sda3 swap swap defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0 debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs noauto 0 0 usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs devgid=14,devmode=664 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0 /windows/MP3 /MP3 none bind 0 0 2. Notice how /dev/sda1 is the windows NTFS partition using the ntfs-3g driver and at the defaults value. As vitamin had posted previously from ntfs-3g's website you need to add the exec option to the end of the list. Code: /dev/sda1 /windows ntfs-3g noatime,nodiratime,defaults,blksize=4096,locale=en_US.UTF-8,exec 0 0 3. The finished product. Code: /dev/sda2 / xfs noatime,nodiratime 1 1 /dev/sda1 /windows ntfs-3g noatime,nodiratime,defaults,blksize=4096,locale=en_US.UTF-8,exec 0 0 /dev/sda3 swap swap defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0 debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs noauto 0 0 usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs devgid=14,devmode=664 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0 /windows/MP3 /MP3 none bind 0 0 4.
