Hi jbowen, Just to confirm, this error happened after an improper shutdown with a non-Ubuntu distro and is therefore not an Ubuntu bug, correct?
The command you wrote looks incorrect: "type mount -t ntfs -3g /dev/sda2/media/disk -o force". Firstly, you need to use 'sudo' in Ubuntu to manually mount a disk. Second, the word 'type' should not be in the command. Also, you need a space between '/dev/sda2' and '/media/disk'. Try it again like this: "sudo mount -t ntfs -3g /dev/sda2 /media/disk -o force". It will ask you for your password. I think with the live cd you can just press <Enter>. If it still fails, please post the failure message here. Also if the above fails, please post the output of "sudo fdisk -l" You may also be interested in this Ubuntu Brainstorm page: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/18018/ ** Package changed: ubuntu => ntfs-3g (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: ntfs-3g (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- ntfs fails to unmount https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/386748 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
