I try to mount an external harddisk on my HDA using the wiki entitled;
Adding a second hard drive to your HDA

I did the following steps:

[root@localhost ~]# hda-diskmount
****************************************************************
mount: unknown filesystem type 'ntfs-3g'
Mounted /dev/sdb1 as '/var/hda/files/drives/drive2'
You may want your system to mount it every time you boot.
To do so, add this line VERY CAREFULLY to /etc/fstab and reboot:
UUID=064EF60C4EF5F3F1 /var/hda/files/drives/drive2 ntfs-3g rw,user,fmask=0113,dmask=0002,uid=500,gid=100,noatime 1 2
****************************************************************
Ignoring /dev/sda1 - already mounted
Ignoring /dev/sda1 - already in /etc/fstab as UUID=8c0b0593-268b-4f5e-977d-4e6d29a34d0d

All Linux, Windows and Mac partitions on your disks have been mounted.

[root@localhost etc]# mount -a
mount: unknown filesystem type 'ntfs-3g'

Now I'm lost.

Any suggestions on this?

The wiki stuff looks fine.

As for your drive issues. Did you follow the wiki guidance where it says to install dependencies, one which is ntfs-3g?

Hello Bigfoot65,
No I did not. And of course this was my mistake. After I followed the install prerequisites for fedora the drive got recognized and the mount -a command did not give any issue anymore.

I have now a fully working HDA and I am putting it to use now.

Thanks.
