Problem Statement: $mount /dev/sda5 /media/folder
...
boot from windows and run chkdsk .............
If you are getting some error like this then , go to terminal, and
$ntfsfix /dev/sda5
All done, now try to mount the ntfs partition or reboot !!
You can also try many other utilities for ntfs partition by typing $ntfs<tab><tab> it will show many commands, e.g.
ntfs-3g ntfs-3g.secaudit ntfscat ntfscluster ntfscp ntfsinfo ntfsls ntfsresize
ntfs-3g.probe ntfs-3g.usermap ntfsclone ntfscmp ntfsfix ntfslabel ntfsmount ntfsundelete
now choose any and run
$<command> --help OR $man <command name>
e.g.
$ntfsfix --help OR $man ntfsfix
But it is really weired to see that linux is telling us to use windows for disk checking.
I hope soon they will change this :)
