Hi. Let me please resume this issue...

I am trying to backup partitions.
I boot the device into Recovery.
Then, on the device, I do
Advanced -> Mount /system
I don't see any message saying that it has been successfully mounted
anywhere.
In my computer "adb devices" lists my device but says "unauthorized".

Is there anything I could do to see if Mount /system is working?

As I do have authorized adb access when I am not in Recovery. Is there
anything I could try to troubleshoot this situation?

Thank you.
