X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.14 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2013 21:31:07 -0000 Hi, I'm trying to mount a 4 TB drive (The Seagate Backup-Plus) on FreeBSD 9.0 Generic, using mount -t ntfs /dev/da0s1 /mnt It fails with: g_vfs_done() da1s1[READ(offset=0, length=1042)]error=22 mount_ntfs: /dev/da1s1 bad argument However, I can mount a 2 TB ntfs drive with no problem, using the same command, and the 4TB drive checks out fine in Windows. Does anyone know if this limitation exists, and if there is a work-around? I only need READ access to this drive. Thanks a lot! Scott -- sdb@ssr.com
