Previously I had installed windows 8 on my Machine along with 3 NTFS drives but now I deleted OS installed partition and install fresh copy of Ubuntu 14.04. Now the problem is I can't access my remaining drives which contains important data on it. I went through some forms and found that if i want to get access to these drives need to boot system in window which resulting in again installation of windows OS but i don't want to go through such long process.Please help me to avoid this long process. Is there any another way to get access to these drives?
Thank you in advance.
This is probably because the ntfs filesystems were not unmounted by Windows and thus are marked dirty. You can clear that by using the ntfsfix command from the ntfsprogs package, which should be installed by default. It should be something like this: sudo ntfsfix -d /dev/sdx1, where sdx1 is the ntfs filesystem you need to clean.
