ntfsprogs should now work completely on Windows 2000 and XP (Cygwin).
|
|
mkntfs does not create bootable volumes when on Windows. Volumes are locked
|
|
when using a R/W utility in order to prevent data corruption. (Yuval Fledel)
|
|
|
|
ntfsinfo has been extended and now provides much more detailed information as
|
|
well as being able to resolve a path/filename instead of requiring the inode
|
|
number. (Yuval Fledel, Anton Altaparmakov)
|
|
|
|
mkntfs now creates bootable ntfs volumes so you can install Windows on an
|
|
ntfs volume created with mkntfs and Windows will manage to boot afterwards.
|
|
|
|
ntfsresize now supports relocation which generally means you are now able to
|
|
resize to any size you like (as long as there is enough free space). Note,
|
|
this modifies the command line options a little as well as the returned output
|
|
so applications using ntfsresize might need modifications before they will
|
|
work with the updated ntfsresize. (Szakacsits Szabolcs)
|
|
|
|
ntfsprogs now should ./configure and compile cleanly on SuSE as well as RedHat
|
|
Linux.
|
|
|
|
ntfsprogs ("make libs" only) now compiles on FreeBSD, NetBSD, Windows (Cygwin),
|
|
and DOS (DJGPP). Thanks to Christophe Grenier for DOS and FreeBSD testing
|
|
and fixes and to Lode Leroy for Windows testing and fixes. Note, the Windows
|
|
version is read-only and has limited functionality at present.

==========
|
|
|
|
Merged the NTFS Gnome VFS module by Jan Kratochvil.
|
|
|
|
Added new utilities: ntfsclone by Szakacsits Szabolcs, ntfscluster by Richard
|
|
Russon, ntfsinfo by Matthew Fanto, ntfsls originally by Lode Leroy, modified
|
|
by Anton Altaparmakov, and ntfscat by Richard Russon.
|
|
|
|
Library internal enhancements and API additions. Of particular note is the
|
|
device io abstraction layer and the addition of the win32 device operations.
|
|
(Note the win32 device operations are read only and incomplete but should
|
|
allow running of simple read-only ntfs utilities under Cygwin.) Thanks to
|
|
Lode Leroy for the win32 code.
|
|
|
|
Renamed ntfstools to ntfsprogs everywhere.
|
|
