Mount ntfs partition read-only in pantheon-files
Asked by
ARUN KUMAR
I have dual booted my system with windows 8.1 and elementary os. Since I haven't disable the fast startup feature in windows 8.1, the ntfs partitions of windows needs to be mounted as read only. This was easily achieved in ubuntu as there was a software called 'Disk Utility' using which I was able to set 'ro' (read only) mount option. Therefore nautilus was mounting the ntfs partition as read only. I tried the same disk utility software on elementary os but couldn't find the mount options in it. Is there a work around for this in elementary os? I just need to tell pantheon files to mount the partition as read only. How can I set this?
Thanks in advance.
