the NTFS module was removed in linux 5.10.2.arch1-1, see [1].
Should another module be used ? Is ntfs missing ? Deprecated ?
Quoting from the commit message of [1]: "Unset NTFS_FS: Please use ntfs-3g." [2]
Note that the existing NTFS_FS kernel module has limited feature-set and in general isn't recommended. There is a new module in the works - NTFS3 - which should, at least on paper, be a far better solution than NTFS_FS and ntfs-3g combined. Only time will tell, if that's really the case :-) -Emil
