Oh well, you have it now.

/devsda1 = ext3 = /boot
/devsda2 = swap
/devsda3 = reiserfs = /
/devsda4 = ext3 = /mnt/share

I have tried both reiser and ext3 on /devsda4

Everything seems to work even though I get the error message.

On my new PC I get an error message at start-up, which I also got on a
similar setup on my last PC.

"mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /devsda4  or too many
mounted filesystems"

BOFH Excuse #245:

The Borg tried to assimilate your system. Resistance is futile.

Robert,

Do you mean /dev/sda..., rather that /devsda...

I take it that you're mounting either a scsi ior usb drive?

Have you tried fdisk -l /dev/sda, just to see what partitions are there, as a starting point. It could be that you have either a corrupt filesystem, or too many mounted partitions? If it's formatted as reiserfs, then the toolkit is very extensive. You may be mounting off a backup superblock ( tru mount -b 16 or -b 32 and see if they mount without error message ).

Can't think of any others at the moment,

Steve
