    Fix reading NTFS usage after resize (#57) · 5e77368d
    Mike Fleetwood authored and Curtis Gedak's avatar Curtis Gedak committed
    After an NTFS file system has been resized the command GParted currently
    uses to read the file system usage fails like this:
    
        # ntfsinfo --mft /dev/sdb1
        Volume is scheduled for check.
        Please boot into Windows TWICE, or use the 'force' option.
        NOTE: If you had not scheduled check and last time accessed this volume
        using ntfsmount and shutdown system properly, then init scripts in your
        distribution are broken. Please report to your distribution developers
        (NOT to us!) that init scripts kill ntfsmount or mount.ntfs-fuse during
        shutdown instead of proper umount.
        Failed to open '/dev/sdb1'.
    
    Fix by added the '--force' flag as described in the error message.
