Based on google, the ntfs driver is now the kernel default, but it provides read only access only, its web page says the people supporting it are part time only, there are reports about file system corruption, a notice about linux 6.9 maybe dropping it.
Maybe ubunutu should just blacklist ntfs by default? ntfs-3g works fine. Maybe not quite as fast, but it works and I certainly want the option of read and write access. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2062972 Title: ntfs partition does not mount with linux 6.8 and CONFIG_BLK_DEV_WRITE_MOUNTED=n Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in ntfs-3g package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I am using Ubuntu 24.04 Development Branch (Beta).
