Hi all,
After a recent crash resulting from trying to run two simultaneous X
servers I am seeing strange behaviour with some mounted disk partitions.
Usually I have the following mounted:
/dev/hda1 /
/dev/hda2 /games
/dev/hdb1 /backup
/dev/hdb2 /localarchive
However after the crash and a reboot I got a message like this on bootup:
/dev/hdb1 is already mounted, aborting
Press enter for maintenance
(or type Control-D to continue):
So after remounting / as read-write I edited /etc/fstab to zero the
check on startup flags for those filesystems. Now the system boots up
fine and mounts those filesystems, but neither "df" or "mount" show them
as being mounted. Unmounting them does nothing either, but they're
definitely mounted since I can access the files on them without problems.
Has anyone else encountered this bizarre behaviour and have an idea of
how one might fix it?
thanks,
Greg
