Post all problems with getting USB Hostmost working on different USB peripherals here.
It is Beta software but has been proved to work by numerous people on here so its mostly a case by case problem.
The developers are getting mighty P*ssed with winey posts and duplicate questions on the other thread.

Before you mount, however you might need extra packages (that may/may not be available in maemo) for write support.

I don't have any NTFS drives, so I can't test, but it should be possible to mount /dev/sda1 /mnt in terminal and open it in filebox

So the default file manager will not see any drives that are NTFS?

If you mount under /media, it should.
Code:
mkdir -p /media/ntfs
mount /dev/sda1 /media/ntfs

It worked all like a charm, thanks.



But the problem is that when I open it from list with default manager i see text (no files), it sees the disk as empty. If i go to filebox I see them all. The bigger problem is that when i try to open a file I get for jpg / pdf - file format not supported, for music / video - file not found. Any ideas?

P.S. http://talk.maemo.org/archive/index.php/t-17811.html Any one looked on this?

@esthreel: This is basic mounting knowledge for linux. You have to give rights to the user (since you run the filemanager as 'user').
you first need the id of your user and users group:

to find out, enter:

Code:
id user
and you will get the user's id. (You will probably get 29999 for both 'user' id and the 'users' group).

now, as root:

Code:
mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /media/ntfs -o uid=29999,gid=29999,utf8,dmask=027,fmask=137
Replace the 29999 with the id you got, if it was different of course.
Now, you should be able to access your files from the file manager.
Good luck.
