Hi,

Sorry for the late reply - I went on vacation for a while.

I think 'mount_ntfs-3g' did the trick in terms of mounting /dev/da0s1
manually. But I tried to add

/dev/da0s1              /homewd         ntfs-3g    ro              0       0

... but then the computer panicked, and went into single user mode. I think
it happened because the ntfs-3g module is loaded later with the
fusefs-stuff. How to get around this one?
