TIL: How to NTFS Drive on NixOS
Recently, I was trying to open an NTFS drive on my NixOS machine; however, the drive was corrupted. So I did the following to fix the drive.
nix-shell -p ntfs3g
ntfsfix /dev/sda1
Where /dev/sda1
is the broken drive. This was enough for me to be able to mount the drive and access the files on it.
I didn’t need to fix it on a Window machine.
