 |
|
I have 3 hard drives in my computer. On one, I have 3 partitions for swap, / and boot, on another i have a fat32 windows partition and on the 3rd, I have and ext2 partition for data. For some reason, I can't seem to mount it. I get:
| Code: | Called: mount -text2 /dev/hde1 /video -o noauto,noatime
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hde1,
or too many mounted file systems |
It does show up as hde on bootup, and is formatted for ext2, so any ideas why it would say that? |

Try to print the partition info (fdisk /dev/hde1 and then p (print)) to be sure the partition is there and it is a Linux partition.

EDIT -- sorry, it is fdisk /dev/hde

"fdisk /dev/hde1" will give you garbage. You can't fdisk an individual partition.
Do "fdisk -l /dev/hde" instead. Are you using an add-in card control that drive? Often times they'll either need their own driver, or have their /dev location in some funky place.
Also- could you show us your /etc/fstab entry for the offending drive? |
