thanks..... I no longer have access to the machine in question. I'll take care of it in the morning. Is installing ntfs-3g merely a simple apt command?

Currently, only 1 or 2 FATs are supported, not 251.

 Provided that you have ntfs-3g installed, the fsck for ntfs is called ntfsck instead of fsck.ntfs .  No, I don't know why there isn't a symlink from fsck.ntfs to ntfsck.  And yes, running fsck.vfat on an NTFS partition will give you some wonky error messages.
