CEntOS - 5 and RHEL-5 is not supporting mounting of NTFS partition, fix harddisk, removable usb harddisk with NTFS partition
some packages need to be installed on it to make NTFS mountable
which are fuse and fuse-ntfs-3g
first of all apply this command to install these packages :
# yum install fuse fuse-ntfs-3g
after installing get the device name of connected hdd which we are going to mount
fdisk -l
in this example external hdd with ntfs partition is sdb2
make a directory / folder to mount hdd
# mkdir /media/hdd
mount sdb2 by this command
mount /dev/sdb2 /media/hdd
and you are doneeeeeeeee......
now you can access the data from ntfs mounted partition
