Linux (commonly pronounced LIH-N?ks in English; variants exist) is a Unix-like computer operating system. Linux is one of the most prominent examples of free software and open source development: typically all underlying source code can be freely modified, used, and redistributed by anyone.

Enable ntfs format on debian or ubuntu with gparted

Gparted offers a way to format a drive as NTFS in Debian, but ntfs is greyed out when you first try to use the application. The reason is that you need to install the ntfsprogs package

After that is installed and you restart gparted, you should now be able to format a drive as NTFS.
