Install

Code: Select all

ntfs-config
from the repos. It will be in your menu. It will let you set read/write permissions and mounting. It will automatically add your Windows partition to your /etc/fstab file, so it will be mounted at boot.

Aurelio_Araujo,

When you reinstalled Windows it changed the UUIDs on your NTFS partitions. Look in the wiki for instructions on how to correct the UUIDs in /etc/fstab.
