Other ntfs-3g in fstab

[shalimar]

Hello, I am trying to auto mount an USB disk, I can do it normal by using

 # ntfs-3g /dev/da0s1 /mnt/usb/

but I added it to /etc/fstab in this way: /dev/da0s1 /mnt/usb ntfs-3g rw 0 0 and when I write # mount /mnt/usb to test, it says

mount: /dev/da0s1: Operation not supported by device

Can someone give me light about this please? Thanks

Try this in /etc/fstab

Clearly the command "ntfs-3g" that you execute is not a mount command. And without interesting extra options, only things mounted by the mount command (perhaps with a "-t" option) can go into fstab. Try reading this discussion from a few years ago: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/45173/
