Hello,

I finally got the new drive and I am in the process of moving the data. The 
problem I have now is that I can't mount the NTFS partition. I followed the 
directions here:
http://sun.drydog.com/faq/9.html

and tried both methods, but the problem is that when I run fdisk on the ntfs 
drive, it does not detect the partitions. In all the tutorials, fdisk is used 
to identify the partition with ntfs and then it is mounted.

I currently have 4 drives, 1 OS drive and 3 identical 1.5TB WD drives. As a 
test I booted parted magic from a live USB and gparted correctly identified the 
ntfs partition. It also correctly identified the other 3 drives as ZFS 
partitions. I was also able to mount the ntfs drive and browse it. However, 
when I run gparted in opensolaris, it does not show any partitions, it only 
shows a single unallocated partition.

I have attached a file with the output from various useful commands, anyone 
know what I'm doing wrong?

Note: I know the tank zpool is made of c6d0 and c6d1, so c7d0 must be the ntfs 
drive.


Thanks.
