mount_ntfs has no play here. It is a remnant of the in-kernel support
for NTFS and it is not used at all.
You need to install fusefs-ntfs and use ntfs-3g the way I showed you.

However, fusefs-ntfs is going to bring along fusefs-kmod as a
dependency. We need a patch to disable that. If Florian or George
don't beat me to it (as they were going to fix it) I can produce one
in 1-2 days.
