Mount NTFS partition is in an unsafe state.

The post on NTFS tricks from May no longer worked for me on Ubuntu 14.10

The NTFS partition is in an unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown Windows fully (no hibernation or fast restarting), or mount the volume read-only with the 'ro' mount option.

Blah blah....

Old way that worked.

sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdf4 ./mnt -o remove_hiberfile

New way which is just wierd....

sudo ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/sdf4 ./mnt


But it worked...
