My problem is that I can't mount my /dev/hdb1 that have NTFS.

Code:
# mount -t ntfs /dev/hdb1 /mnt/whej
mount: /dev/hdb1 is already mounted or /mnt/whej busy


What can be wrong?
I can mount my /dev/hda1 that also have NTFS

Do a 'df -a' and make sure that 1) /dev/hdb1 is not already mounted and 2) /mnt/whej doesn't have something already mounted on it. If either of those show up in the output, you know one of the 2 cases above it true.

No, either /dev/hdb1 or /mnt/whej is used

Also check the contents of /etc/mtab. I've never seen that error before except when the sytem really does think that the device is already mounted.

Ok, could you just post the output from 'mount'.

Interesting. The only odd thing I see is that you've got /proc mounted twice. You'll need to remove one of those entries from your /etc/fstab. Try that and see if it helps. Try rebooting after you do that.
