I have a rhel 5.2 machine and I am trying to mount a ntfs file system harddisk. I know that we need ntfs and fuse rpms to mount it. By installing those rpms I mounted it in my rhel 5.4 machine. But in 5.2 I followed the same steps but failed to mount. Then after googling I found that 5.2 kernel doesn't support or have fuse kernel by default and then I followed this link.

Below is the output after doing the steps said in this link.

I don't know what to do from the above error which I got. I searched in google but I didn't get the solution anywhere. How to solve the above issue?

I finally found the process to use ntfs file system in rhel 5.2. I followed the link.

http://oliphauntz.blogspot.in/2011/03/fix-how-to-mount-ntfs-filesystem-on.html#comment-form

In the above link the step " wget http://pbxinaflash.net/source/pogoplug/fuse-2.6.0.tar.gz" is not working. So I manually downloaded fuse-2.6.0 from internet and then installed and configured it. Try the same if anyone is facing the same problem which I faced.
