NTFS mount options on Linux (that I use anyways)

[kisaragi-hiu]

Automounting NTFS partitions on Linux can be quite a pain. Here's the mount options I currently use that doesn't cause problems for me:
defaults,noauto,nofail,uid=1000,gid=1000,user,exec,x-gvfs-show,x-systemd.automount

Explaination:

• Options to the right overwrite options to the left. noexec exec will mean exec, because noexec is overwritten.
• defaults: Grab the defaults in case I'm missing something.
• noauto: Don't automatically mount on boot. Later x-systemd.automount will handle it.
• nofail: Please don't fail the boot for an unimportant data partition, system :)
• uid=1000,gid=1000: Set up the owner of the partition. Steam would fail to download games without this.
• user: Mount and unmount without root. Doesn't really matter with x-systemd.automount.
• exec: Files are all executable.
• x-gvfs-show: Tell gvfs-based file managers to show the partition no matter where it's mounted.
• x-systemd.automount: Automatically mount on any read/write attempts.
