In the process of getting it quieted down, the computer tower got knocked around a bit (I had to pretty much climb over it to get to the surge protector.) Then, my computer wouldn't boot up, but my husband was able to figure out that the computer wasn't finding the hard drive and this was a physical connection issue. So he got the hard drive reconnected, and the computer found the hard drive and quit trying to boot from a CD, but Windows still won't boot up. My Ubuntu (Hardy Heron) CD works just fine. I don't care about Windows. I am fine with wiping it and becoming an Ubuntu user. What I want is to get some pictures out of Windows. I tried this guide: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windo...dows-computer/ and this one: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntucat/...ng-your-files/ ...but when I enter the stuff to force the thing
only reason I wrote it is because it was something that happened to me now and again. But what about dual boots? What happens when your NTFS drive goes beserk, and you
Refusing To Operate On Read-write Mounted Device /dev/sdb1
only have access to your Ubuntu install? Well, finally, I've come across a solution. ntfsfix refusing to operate on read-write mounted device Now, before we begin, this HowTo assumes that your Ubuntu install is working as normal, and that the NTFS partition isn't ubuntu input output error external hard drive essential to Ubuntu. It's also possible (though I've not yet tried) to follow this HowTo using Parted Magic. First, we need to find out what partition we are dealing with. To do this, open https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1433139 a terminal and type; sudo fdisk -l That'll give you something like this; Disk /dev/sdb: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x2709a320 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 * 1 19457 156288321 7 HPFS/NTFS /dev/sd1 is https://linuxexpresso.wordpress.com/2011/09/20/howto-fix-an-ntfs-partition-in-ubuntu/ in this case the NTFS drive we'll be working with. Obviously change this to whatever yours is. If your partition isn't listed here, or appears to be the wrong size, you'll need to use TestDisk. Next, you need to install some software called "ntfsprogs". You can do this through Synaptic or on the command line using; sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs There's just one last step. sudo ntfsfix /dev/sdb1 With any luck, you should see the following; Mounting volume... OK Processing of $MFT and $MFTMirr completed successfully. NTFS volume version is 3.1. NTFS partition /dev/sdb1 was processed successfully. And that's it! Go try to mount you NTFS partition, and it should work again as normal. If not, feel free to leave a comment below. Share this:TwitterFacebookGoogleLike this:Like Loading...
