People I'm new to this ARCH world. I want to mount my XP partition(NTFS). I tried

#ntfsmount /dev/sda1 /mnt

But some errors are thrown on de console

fuse: unknown option "USER = root"
fuse_new failed
umounting /dev/sda1 ()

Now how can i resolve this problem to mount my ntfs partition in rw mode.

What is not working? Is it not r/w?

EDIT: Look into the possible use of ........mount -o remount,rw /dev/sdxx..... in /etc/rc.local.......

Not sure of the exact command but the idea is to make it r/w on every boot-up via rc.local.

Hopefully, other users can correct any discrepancy I have introduced.
