Hey guys,
I have just installed isotope over my ubuntu machine and I am really liking the new OS, just one problem with mounting my one disk.

I am trying to mount it using:
I have tried a few variations with no luck - here is the output from fdisk and gpart:
Am still fairly new to this so would appreciate any help.
Many thanks,
I have just installed isotope over my ubuntu machine and I am really liking the new OS, just one problem with mounting my one disk. I never paid attention to it under ubuntu and can't even remember where it came from as it always just worked. I have also tried a number of google'd remedies with no change and have hit a wall.
I am trying to mount it using:
Code:
# mount -t ntfs /dev/ada1s1 /mnt/bfd1
NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/ada1s1': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/ada1s1' 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?I have tried a few variations with no luck - here is the output from fdisk and gpart:
Code:
# gpart show /dev/ada1
=> 63 2930277105 ada1 MBR (1.4T)
63 2930272002 1 ntfs (1.4T)
2930272065 5103 - free - (2.5M)
# fdisk /dev/ada1

Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1

Information from DOS bootblock is:
