I did some more digging and found out the NTFS partition was actually mounted via the ntfs3 kernel driver, as shown by the output of "mount":
/dev/sdb1 on /media/me/NTFS4GB type ntfs3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,uhelper=udisks2) After blacklisting the ntfs3 module, the next mount attempt showed the fuseblk type, so that would mean ntfs-3g, which is fuse-based: /dev/sdb1 on /media/me/NTFS4GB type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other,blksize=4096,uhelper=udisks2) So maybe bdev_allow_write_mounted=y simply appeared to have no effect because the wrong driver was being used all along and the partition actually had a different issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2062972 Title: ntfs partition does not mount with linux 6.8 and CONFIG_BLK_DEV_WRITE_MOUNTED=n To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2062972/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
