SD card won't mount as rw, coreplus live USB

[mikewax]

Hi everyone,

running TC off a thumb drive, trying to mount device /dev/mmcblk0p1 (SD card) as rw.

i do this:

Code: [Select]

sudo mount -t ntfs -o rw /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt/mmcblk0p1
then i do this:

Code: [Select]

mount | grep mmcblk0p1
and i get this:
/dev/mmcblk0p1 on /mnt/mmcblk0p1 type ntfs (ro,relatime,uid=0,gid=0,fmask=0177,dmask=077,nls=iso8859-1,errors=continue,mft_zone_multiplier=1)

it mounts ro, won't mount rw

in the file fstab, it says this:
/dev/mmcblk0p1  /mnt/mmcblk0p1  ntfs     noauto,users,exec,umask=000 0 0 # Added by TC

anybody know whats up?
thanx, mike wax

Please read the corebook. http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/book.html

Core does not support writing on ntfs.
To write to ntfs you need to install the ntfs-3g extension.
If you want your tce directory on an ntfs drive you will need to remaster with ntfs support included in the initrd.
See ezremaster.
