NTFS external drive corrupted after Ubuntu Freeze
This has happened to me before, I was copying data over to my NTFS Terabyte and Ubuntu froze then I had to turn off my computer and when I rebooted the NTFS external was corrupted, I ran it through ntfsfix and it did a little job, but was told by another Linux user that I need to use a Windows OS to fix it.
My question here is, is there anyway to fix the NTFS external with Linux? I remember doing it before and it restored everything, but Ive ran it through chkdsk on my old Windows XP computer and it found a few orphan file errors. So, is there any other way to fix this using Ubuntu instead of a Windows OS?
I'm running Ubuntu "Natty" 32 bit.
