These instructions have been liberally copied [http://fernandofig.wordpress.com/2011/08/08/ntfs-write-support-on-osx-lion-with-ntfs-3g-f/ from this excellent blog post].
=== Step 1. Install the ntfs-3g port. ===
{{{
sudo port install ntfs-3g
}}}
=== Step 2. Find out your userid and groupid. ===
User ID:
{{{
id -u
}}}
Group ID:
{{{
id -g
}}}
=== Step 3. Use a modified mount_ntfs executable and save the OS X original to {{{/sbin/mount_ntfs.orig}}} ===
{{{
sudo mv /sbin/mount_ntfs /sbin/mount_ntfs.orig
sudo touch /sbin/mount_ntfs
sudo chmod 0755 /sbin/mount_ntfs
sudo chown 0:0 /sbin/mount_ntfs
sudo nano /sbin/mount_ntfs
}}}
Then paste in the following code and save it by typing Control-X and pressing "Y". NOTE:
- You can optionally substitute in your User ID and Group ID (from Step 2 above) in place of 501 and 20 in lines 4 and 5 below.
- This script also assumes the standard Macports install location of {{{/opt/local/}}} so you will need to modify it if yours is different.
{{{
