ntfsprogs: where can I find it for Merlin?

[bpearse]

I wanted to add ntfsprogs, which includes ntfsfix, on my router. I tried to use opkg but it does not find ntfsprogs or anything similar. In fact, opkg list shows only about 20 programs available. Is there another source I need to add?

My current repository is:
src/gz openwrt http://wl500g-repo.googlecode.com/svn/ipkg/openwrt

Well, I found 1/2 of the issue. I guess I should be updating Entware when I update firmwares. The new entware-setup.sh script gives a new repository and is much better updated.

Only bad side is that there is still no ntfsprogs on that repository.

Those tools are meant to use with the open-source NTFS-3G.

The firmware already includes Paragon's chkntfs, which is designed to work with their ufsd driver.

Thanks! chkntfs is really what I wanted!
