Up to this point everything looks good. The win10 ntfs HD is recognized 
as ntfs.

But mounting it gives errors

/root >ntfs-3g /dev/da0s1 /mnt
fuse: failed to open fuse device: No such file or directory

/root >mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/da0s1 /mnt
mount: /dev/da0s1: Operation not supported by device

/root >ntfsfix /dev/da0s1
Mounting volume... OK
Processing of $MFT and $MFTMirr completed successfully.
Checking the alternate boot sector... FAILED
Error: Failed to fix the alternate boot sector

Question: Can ntfs-3g mount USB connected external HD?
