FSCK an NTFS partition

[balanga]

Is it possible to chkdsk an NTFS partition from FreeBSD?

No

I think there is a fsck or chkdsk for NTFS with the fuse_ntfs package. I remember years ago I had an issue with an NTFS external drive and I think I ended up using something from fuse. Sorry I can't be more certain.

You might be right about that. Looking at the pkg-plist of sysutils/fusefs-ntfs I see a bin/ntfsfix. That looks like a checkdisk type application.

Well, do not try it in a production environment.
