Working UL, Cannot DL Fujitsu

When i use “ntfs-3g -o force,rw /dev/sda1 /ntfs” i get a message saying 'ntfs-3g-mount: failed to access mountpoint /ntfs: no such file or directory.
I used g-parted to create an ntfs partition, but i noticed g-pated see’s the drive as /dev/sda. When i use “ntfs-3g -o force,rw /dev/sda /ntfs” i get a message saying The device /dev/sda doesnt seem to have a valid NTFS, maybe wrong device is used?
Im using Fog version 0.32 and kernel is one of your i believe, originally called bzImageCORE (5.7mb) although i have tried a few other kernels too.
Many Thanks,
Eamon

Hi Tom, i used the above commands and it accepted them without error this time but still errors and restarts after Check Hard Drives.

I may be a little late to the party but is it possible that the hdd is bad?
-
i just tested a different one (we have 30 of them) and that does the same thing. bah.

Have you tried completely wiping the hdd, removing all partitions then installing just windows to see if it will even upload that?
If you are using the factory partitions they can be a nightmare some times.
At least this way we can eliminate the hdd/formatting being the issue.
-
Yea i’ve noticed partitions can be a pain, especially gpt tables from old win8 downgraded to win7 hard drives.
I completely wiped and re-partitioned one of them and made 2 images and uploaded them perfectly fine. One image with sysprep and one without, but i cant seem to bring either of the images back down again.

I’m assuming you’ve tried turning disabling UEFI in the bios?
Secure boot is also off correct? if it’s windows 7 it should be, but just to be safe.
-
Yes, bios setting are correct. I just noticed something strange though, when i get a new E420 and boot into fog and check compatibility the hard drive passes, but if i register it and then check, it fails…
-
What?
If it passed the first time, but not the second, then something would possibly be wonky within the BIOS is my guess. There’s no changes made to the system or kernel during the registration phase.
