I believe that the issue is that the stock version of 20-ntfs-3g-policy.fdi assumes that the NTFS volumes are hotpluggable, which is why those of us who only use NTFS on such media (e.g., USB/eSATA/firewire external drives) don't see this error, and those of you with local NTFS partitions do.

Attached is a diff from the stock policy to the one that Guy proposes, which seems to be working for you folks. It makes clear that the only change from stock to proposed is the removal of the check for being hot-pluggable storage.

Can anyone justify why the hotpluggable check is important? Else, let's get it removed and push it back upstream.
