[Bug 386748] Re: ntfs fails to unmount

[rockfx01]

Hi jbowen,

Just to confirm, this error happened after an improper shutdown with a
non-Ubuntu distro and is therefore not an Ubuntu bug, correct?

The command you wrote looks incorrect: "type mount -t ntfs -3g
/dev/sda2/media/disk -o force".  Firstly, you need to use 'sudo' in
Ubuntu to manually mount a disk.  Second, the word 'type' should not be
in the command.  Also, you need a space between '/dev/sda2' and
'/media/disk'.  Try it again like this: "sudo mount -t ntfs -3g
/dev/sda2 /media/disk -o force".  It will ask you for your password.  I
think with the live cd you can just press <Enter>.  If it still fails,
please post the failure message here.

Also if the above fails, please post the output of "sudo fdisk -l"
