How to Mount Windows NTFS Partition in Linux?

First install EPEL repository and enabled it, then install ntfs-3g and fuse package using yum with root user.

# yum install ntfs-3g fuse

Now load FUSE driver to mount detected devices

# modprobe fuse

Once fuse module is loaded, type below command to find out NTFS Partitions in Linux.

# fdisk -l

 Device Boot      Start    End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdb1         1    21270    7816688   b  W95 FAT32

First create a mount point to mount the NTFS partition.

# mkdir /media/ntfs

Simply run the following command to mount the partition. Replace sda1 with your actual partition.

# mount  -t  ntfs-3g  /dev/sda1  /mnt/ntfs

If you want to make mount point permanent at the boot time, then simple add the following line at /etc/fstab file. This will remain as permanent.

/dev/sda1    /mnt/usb    ntfs-3g        defaults    0    0
