Public bug reported:

I can not seem to create hard links on ntfs partitions (either on
internal or external hd).

Repeat with:

x...@x:/media/sda5 % ls -la A B
ls: cannot access A: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access B: No such file or directory
x...@x:/media/sda5 % echo 'file A' > A
x...@x:/media/sda5 % cat A
file A
x...@x:/media/sda5 % cp -al A B
x...@x:/media/sda5 % cat A
file A
x...@x:/media/sda5 % cat B
file A
x...@x:/media/sda5 % echo 'file B' > B

Expected results:

x...@x:/media/sda5 % cat A B
file B
file B

Actual results:

x...@x:/media/sda5 % cat A B
file A
file B

Mount status (to prove this is an ntfs partition and to show it's mount
options):

x...@x:~ % mount | grep /media/sda5
/dev/sda5 on /media/sda5 type fuseblk 
(rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,default_permissions,blksize=4096)

I'm running Ubuntu 8.10
