Thanks Andrew. Unfortunately.. those are not related. I've checked around. Those are generated when /etc/rcS.d/S27evms (Enterprise Volume Manager). I can't see why it runs, I'll look at sometime else. Back to the original problem then.. why are my /dev/hda* partitions not mounted and tagged as "busy" if I try to mount them manually ?
