Using rootcopy on NTFS with NTFS3 driver
Posted: 07 Dec 2021, 14:51
Good news for NTFS users, the NTFS3 driver supports POSIX so we can take full advantage of the rootcopy feature.
Notes:
CONFIG_NTFS3_FS_POSIX_ACL must be enabled.
I personally don't like and don't use rootcopy, I use changes with changes-ro.
