Re: [announcement] ntfs-3g: open source read-write driver - bugreport (???)

Welcome!

I'm using an AMD Duron 850 MHz with VIA chipset; with UHU-Linux 1.2 
(kernel 2.6.9-19, but patched by UHU-developers) and Windows 2000 SP4 as 
"NTFS-maker".

I tried yesterday the driver on the partition /dev/hdb3.

FUSE install (from source): OK
ntfs-3g install (from source): OK

 > umount /dev/hdb3
 > modprobe fuse
 > ntfs-3g /dev/hdb3 /Win2000/NTFS-Tmp
everything were OK.

I made a new directory on /dev/hdb3, and copied a big (approx. 2GB) file 
into it with Midnight Commander. The file were copied succesfully. I 
made some ls -l commands to compare the source and target file lengts, 
it was OK. After it, I restarted the computer, again with UHU 1.2., but 
(with my default settings) the /dev/hdb3 were mounted with kernel NTFS 
in read-only mode (UHU disables the limited kernel-NTFS write access). 
The mc showed the new (previously made) directory on /dev/hdb3 in red, 
and I wasn't able to step into it. With the gnome nautilus filemanager 
the situation was the same.
I started windows, the Total Commander were no able to change to the new 
directory too. I typed
 > chkdsk d:\NTFS-Tmp /f ( in my computer, the /dev/hdb3 is mounted in 
windows into the NTFS-Tmp directory of the main drive D: )
chkdsk found some inode and free space errors, it repaired them, and 
voilà: The new directory created under linux were disappeared.
I were able to repeat it every time, without exception (with small(er) 
files too).
I would use NTFS under linux. What do I miss?
May be a problem if captive-NTFS (and its requirements, e.g. LUFS) is 
installed on the computer (although it was not used)?

Thank you for your help
