FreeBSD freebsd9 9.0-BETA3 FreeBSD 9.0-BETA3 #0: Sat Sep 24 21:31:28 UTC 2011     root at farrell.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64
>Description:
installed fuse-ntfs:

# pkg_info
fusefs-kmod-0.3.9.p1.20080208_8 Kernel module for fuse
fusefs-libs-2.7.4   FUSE allows filesystem implementation in userspace
fusefs-ntfs-2011.4.12_1 Mount NTFS partitions (read/write) and disk images
libublio-20070103   User space caching library

enabled fuse kernel module:

# /etc/rc.conf
fusefs_enable="YES"

rebooted...

check kernel module is loaded:

# kldstat
 4    1 0xffffffff8174b000 a960     fuse.ko


created symlink:

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  22 Jan  1 11:48 /usr/sbin/mount_ntfs-3g -> /usr/local/bin/ntfs-3g

attempt to mount:

# mount_ntfs-3g /dev/da3s1 /mnt/ntfs1 
mount_fusefs: /dev/fuse0 on /mnt/ntfs1: Invalid argument
fuse: failed to mount file system: No such file or directory
>How-To-Repeat:
simply try to mount an NTFS drive using the fuse-ntfs package. 100% repeatable with 9.0BETA3
>Fix:
works fine with mount_ntfs, however we need write support
