NTFS Overview
=============

To mount an NTFS volume, use the filesystem type 'ntfs'. The driver
currently works only in read-only mode, with no fault-tolerance
supported.  If you enable the experimental write support, make sure
you can recover from a complete loss of data. For ftdisk support,
limited success was reported with volume sets on top of the md driver,
although mirror and stripe sets should work as well - if the md
driver can be talked into using the same layout as Windows NT.

The ntfs driver supports the following mount options:
iocharset=name      Character set to use when returning file names.
                    Unlike VFAT, NTFS suppresses names that contain
		    unconvertible characters
utf8=<bool>	    Use UTF-8 for converting file names
uni_xlate=<bool>,2  Use the VFAT-style encoding for file names outside
		    the current character set. A boolean value will
		    enable the feature, a value of 2 will enable the
		    encoding as documented in vfat.txt:
		    ':', (u & 0x3f), ((u>>6) & 0x3f), (u>>12),
uid=
gid=
umask=              These options work as documented in mount(8).
		    By default, the files are owned by root and
		    not readable by somebody else.
posix=<bool>	    If enabled, the file system distinguishes between
		    upper and lower case. The 8.3 alias names are presented
		    as hard links instead of being suppressed.
