I am receiving this error when attempting to restore an image:
"mount: Mounting /dev/sda2 at /a failed: No such device"
Both '/proc/diskstats' and '/proc/partitions' show the sda2 device. The
partition is created and formatted properly, and can be mounted manually:
"mount /dev/sda2 /a" returns a message about mounting an ext3 filesystem as
ext2, but is successful. However, when I mount with '-t ext3' I receive the
same error as from with the autoinstall script.
I initially got this error with an autoinstallcd created on a reiserfs system,
but since ext3 is loaded with BOEL, it shouldn't matter, should it?
The master script for this image shows:
----
logmsg "Load additional filesystem drivers."
modprobe reiserfs
modprobe ext2
modprobe ext3
modprobe jfs
modprobe xfs
----
I have since made another autoinstall cd having put ext3.ko in my
/usr/share/systemimager/boot/i386/standard/initrd_template directory, and added
a line for it in INSMOD_COMMANDS.
I am now getting out of memory errors at about the 358th inode (out of 5NN)
from mke2fs. I have tested multiple times and on different hardware with the
same result. I have not appended any values for ramdisk size, etc.
I am about to repeat the process and check si.log, but I don't expect there to
be information specific to this issue.
I am 1.5 fruitless days into this issue and would greatly appreciate any
feedback..
