Eric,
Are you sure you have loaded ext2.o kernel module ?

Eric,
Which kernel module ? I am using initrd_ide.lrp.
Does initrd_ide.lrp include all the necessary modules
?
I did a few experiments with it. What I found are:
1) mount /dev/hda1 /mnt on an existing/working Linux
(83) partition
Mounting /dev/hda1 on /mnt failed: Invalid argument
2) mount -t ext2 /dev/hda1 /mnt
Mounting /dev/hda1 on /mnt failed: No such device
Note that /dev/hda1 is an existing/working Linux ext2
FS.
3. I "lrpkg -i hdsupp" and then did a fsck.ext2 on
/dev/hda1. It worked fine as I expected - implies the
FS on hda1 is an ext2.
4. I got a new disk and did a fdisk to create a new
partition. If I label it fat16 and do a mkfs.msdos on
it, I can "mount /dev/hda1 /mnt or mount -t msdos
/dev/hda1 /mnt" - no problem. It also works fine with
a new vfat or minix partition too.
If I re-label the same partition as Linux partition
i.e. 83 and do mkfs.ext2, surprisingly I can "mount
/dev/hda1 /mnt" correctly. However, the same trick
works only sometimes. Why ? Note that this is a new
fdisk not the existing Linux partition.
I need to mount an existing/working Linux partition.
Any hint ?
Thank you for your help.
mount /dev/hda1

Hello,
You have to include and load the ext2 kernel module
to mount an ext2 fs.

Subject: [leaf-user] Bering-uClibc-2.4 mount problem
Greetings,
I installed initrd_ide.lrp and dmesg showed that
hda1
and hda2 were detected.
However, when I tried to mount -t ext2 /dev/hda1
/mnt
, it returns No such device.
I also tried hdsupp.lrp. fdisk works fine but the
mounting problem is still there.
I can mount /dev/fd0 fine but not any harddisk
partitions.
Any hint ? Any problem with the busybox's mount ?
Thanks.
