System and Network configuration • How to mount a NTFS partition if it not "clean"

$

If you ever get the partition 'clean', then step through the process manually to verify/vindicate Debian's handling of NTFS.

Boot clean with the drive NOT in fstab.
As a normal user verify the drive is present in /dev/disk/by-this-way-and-that/* <-- this is your 'what'
Mount manually.
I would mount the drive with systemd-mount without any declarations, or via the DE's method.

Code:

systemd-mount what where
Test access.
Umount, reboot, repeat, confirm.

I use qcow2's formatted NTFS and pass them to windows as usb. I mount them as required in Debian vms via usb, sata, virtio scsi, whatever. Never had a NTFS problem caused/fixed by Debian. I would always 'fix' the drive in Windows and unmount it manually before shutting down.
