Automounting in userspace with ivman

phranzee · Guru Joined: 22 Nov 2003 Posts: 397 Location: katowice/pl

hi. i have following problem: when the drive is mounted by ivman some files are often broken (i/o error), but when i mount it by hand everything is ok. where's the problem? i've had it with almost every version of ivman/hal/dbus.

ivman 0.5_pre2
dbus 0.23-r2
hal 0.4.5-r2

phranzee: your problem is very odd. Ivman only calls the 'mount' command, it doesn't do anything which could cause the errors you're seeing. When you say you mount it by hand, do you mean with your own fstab entry, or with the one created by fstab-sync? It's possible that fstab-sync puts some options in the fstab rule which your system doesn't like for some reason...

Does this occur for devices for which an fstab rule is created by HAL (i.e., USB drives etc) and not for things with your own fstab rules (i.e., CD/DVD drives etc)? If so, it seems like weird fstab-sync rules are indeed the culprit, although I am not sure exactly how they'd be messing it up...

Hi there

first of all, ivman worked just fine on my Gentoo Box for my DVD and DVD-R Drive Mount, Eject etc works out of the box

I'm using

ivman 0.5_pre2
dbus 0.23-r2
hal 0.4.5-r2
udev
hotplug
coldplug

but i got a problem with USB devices like USB Sticks or Drives.

I have: a 20GB Freecom USB Drive (fat32)
60GB SiteCom USB Drive (fat32)
200GB WB USB Drive (still NTFS but will change soon)

If i'm plug one of the drives into my USB Port ivman is mounting them just fine and i can see them in fstab
like:

none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0

/dev/hdb /media/cdrecorder auto umask=0000,exec,user,noauto,managed 0 0
/dev/hda /media/cdrom auto umask=0000,exec,user,noauto,managed 0 0
/dev/floppy/0 /media/floppy auto umask=0000,exec,user,noauto,managed 0 0
/dev/sdc1 /media/FHD2-PRO vfat umask=0000,exec,user,noauto,managed 0 0
/dev/sdd1 /media/usbdisk reiserfs umask=0000,exec,user,noauto,managed 0 0

and i also can see them in the Konqueror but if i click on one of the drives i got the following Errormessage:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc1,
or too many mounted file systems
Please check that the disk is entered correctly.

Clicking on "OK" i got this again:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc1,
or too many mounted file systems
Please check that the disk is entered correctly.

for sdd1 i know the problem is, that fstab is saying it is a reiserfs but it is really a NTFS drive

but sdc1 is formated with FAT32 and in fstab it is mounted as vfat
so should be all right but i havn't any access to the drive.

Any Idea ?????

Again my DVD and DVD-R Drive is working fine

Hi
You are right i can't mount by hand
I'll go right now and check my Kernel for cp 437 and cp 850
maybe this is also the problem !

thank You

I will post how it works

Hurra !!!!!

the Codepage 437 fixed the problem !!!

It si working now

I love this Forum and i love Gentoo !!!

Thank you

But it si still not working on my NTFS formated Drive
(Yes NTFS Support is in the Kernel)

Errormessage:

mount: unknown filesystem type 'reiserfs'
Please check that the disk is entered correctly.

Reiser ??? I'm not using Reiser at all

Any Ideas

You sure the partition works under Windows?
Can you post the relevant line from /etc/fstab? Is that line generated automatically? is ntfs compiled in the kernel or as a module?

Rusty1973 · Posted: Fri Feb 11, 2005 5:32 pm Post subject: Fstab

Yep NTFS is in the kernel and the frive works fine with Windows.

here the fstab line
/dev/sdc1 /media/usbdisk reiserfs exec,user,noauto,managed 0 0

It will be inserted automaticly by ivman !
thinks it is reiser for some reason

yeah, that is weird... As far as i know, that line is generated by hald and not ivman. So, for some reason hald thinks that your drive is reiser. You could try searching hal buglists. I really don't know why it would behave like that...

(By the way, I assume you're using the latest versions of dbus, hal, and ivman, i.e. ~arch)

Rusty1973 · Posted: Fri Feb 11, 2005 6:55 pm Post subject: Version

I will look into the hald stuff

I guess i use the latest versions of

dbus
hald
ivman

I hope

Rusty1973: Yes, it's definitely a HAL problem, not Ivman. It's very odd that HAL thinks your drive is reiserfs. Here are some ideas for fixing it:

* In /etc/filesystems (you may have to create it), put ntfs before reiserfs. This makes 'mount -t auto' try the NTFS filesystem before ReiserFS; I'm hoping HAL might also respect this file. For more info, do 'man mount' and find the bit about /etc/filesystems .
* Mess around with whether or not filesystems are compiled as modules. If NTFS is a module, try compiling it in... or vice versa, if it's currently built in :-)

Maybe try ReiserFS as a module too, if possible (although if you use it for / as I do, you can't of course...)

And, of course, keep trying new versions of HAL as they come out... :-)

strange I was getting this same error message

Rusty1973 · Posted: Sat Feb 12, 2005 4:50 pm Post subject: filesystems

I tryed to change /etc/filesystems
It is a symbolic link to ../proc/filesystems.

I can't change this file at all, even not as root user
but your idea sounds like the problem. Reiserfs isn't in there.
I'll go and put reiser in my kernel.
I'm not using it my system is running on ext2 for /boot and everthing else is xfs

Hi G2K i had this problem too with vfat and it was a problem of the codepage setting in my kernel, i disabled the codepage 437 (default for fat filesystems) just enabled it and it worked!

Thanks a lot for all you guys help !

What a great forum

d4rk74m4, phranzee: Does the I/O problem occur with the first CD/DVD inserted, or only with subsequent ones? I'm thinking it might be a problem with unmounting (if you are using Ivman and just hitting the 'eject' button for CDs/DVDs, maybe you should try manually unmounting them first). One of the places Ivman could really use some work is on ejecting CDs/DVDs; the kernel seems to break a bit when you eject CDs without unmounting them first (which is fair enough), and we need to fix this in userspace somehow. Unfortunately HAL doesn't/can't send any message to Ivman when the eject button is pressed on most drives, so I'm not sure how to go about this.

Edit: I have been able to reproduce this, and I'm convinced it's a kernel bug. It seems like the kernel gets confused about the size of discs; if you put in a small disc, then eject it without unmounting first, and then put in a larger one, the kernel refuses to read past the size of the smaller disc. That's why it's always the last files which have I/O errors (i.e. the ones nearest the end of the disc). I'm going to do more testing; for now, just unmount CDs/DVDs before ejecting, and that should take care of the problem.

Which kernel versions are you each using? I'm using gentoo-dev-sources 2.6.10; I've got my fingers crossed this is already fixed in 2.6.11_rc3, though I don't really expect it will be, since ejecting without unmounting is officially the wrong thing to do. But, we shall see.

G2k: Sorry for neglecting this in my last post... yes, you should always unmount a USB disk manually before yanking it, regardless of whether or not you're using Ivman. Sometimes things will be OK if you just yank it, but sometimes they won't - and udev, HAL and the kernel don't like it in any case, so even if your data remains OK, you might see weird things like HAL not cleaning up mount points, udev not removing device node etc. (this is somewhat related to the CD/DVD unmounting problem - we're used to just ejecting CDs/DVDs because they're mounted read-only, so we don't care so much about unmounting them.)

G2k: you could edit this file /usr/share/hal/fdi/90defaultpolicy/storage-policy.fdi and change the following line (it's in the beginning, line 14 or something):

With the latest hald (I must have upgraded it with emerge -Du without noticing it), I had problems mounting usb sticks. I solved it by commenting out the utf8 bit in /usr/share/hal/fdi/90defaultpolicy/storage-policy.fdi (line 168 in my file):
