[Bug 838091] Re: should link fsck.ntfs -> ntfsfix/ntfsck

[dm]

Yes, that's fine. But what should I do when I start my Oneiric and it bothers me with fsck.ntfs for my two windows partitions? It's not a solution to say 
'If you want to call fsck.ntfs, do so with an option avoiding the checks, until some kind soul strives to develop them.'
Haha.

With Natty I never had such trouble before. When it is not possible to
check a partition, Ubuntu shouldn't come with such stupid error
messages. It should ignore such things it can't handle. I don't want
that the boot process gets interrupted and wants me to press S to skip
these check. I have to do this 2 times on every boot up. This can't be
true. I never had it before and I don't want it for the future. I need a
really solution. Such things shouldn't happen. What about newbies which
a trying Ubuntu the first time?

Title:
  should link fsck.ntfs -> ntfsfix/ntfsck

Status in “ntfs-3g” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've got a dualboot laptop, and the installer has created fstab
  entries for the NTFS partitions. But now oneiric is complaining that
  it can't mount them, and prompts me on boot what to do about it.
  Skipping or ignoring the error makes the boot complete, and boot.log
  reveals that it fails due to fsck.ntfs being missing.

  So, ntfs-3g should symlink fsck.ntfs to ntfsfix or ntfsck, though the
  latter fails to check my partitions, so maybe ntfsfix would be better.
