I can manually mount /sys on the /chroot/sys but within the chroot it's not showing up. I see from outside the chroot that it's mounted to a directory within the chroot, but within the chroot it's not visible. /tmp /proc and /dev are visible, just not /sys.
View 5 RepliesI am running Lenny, but I wanted to use a newer version of rtorrent, so I am running it via schroot. I have an init.d script from the rtorrent website that would automatically start rtorrent on boot, but now I am running rtorrent through schroot, it doesn't work anymore.I believe it may be something in my rc.# folders. I seem to remember adding a command to end all schroot sessions when shutting down the ompur, and I was thinking that it might be interfering with rtorrent starting correctly.Any tips on how I troubleshoot this? Here's a file listing of my rc2.d folder:

This problem of mounting usb-sticks has cropped up after installing debian-5.0.4 anew. Whenever I am attaching the usb the lower panel shows JetFlash TS2GJFV30 (not mounted). When I am clicking on 'Mount device' a red warning sign is appering telling 'Error'. If I run terminal command 'mount /dev/disk' then error message is 'mount: can't find /dev/disk in /etc/ or /etc/mtab'.

I'm getting this error while booting.
Just the last day or so, I've noticed a long pause when I boot my laptop, with lots of disk activity. dmesg says:
[Code]...
Why would there be a 15-second pause (during which the disk is slammed) between mounting root and mounting swap? During this time I see nothing but a blank purple screen, there are no cycling dots or text scroll. Is this normal and I'm just freaking out over nothing because there's no indicator of progress?

I am having permissions errors every time I try to mount a windows host. I have a linux server and all the windows computers can see that computer and its files, but we wanted to start backing up the linux machine to one of our other computers. so I tried to mount one of the computers. here is the sequence of events:
Code:
$mount -t cifs //192.168.1.194/Admin$ /mnt/Anita-comp
password: (I have no password so I left it blank)
Mount error (13): Permission Denied
I tried all sorts of passwords we use around the office and none of them worked.
I then decided to try mounting one of our other computers. this one looked like it worked fine. no error messages at all. (I left password blank) so I look in my filesystem and the mounted drive is not in the /mnt/Anita-comp file. What gives?
I have installed Debian through the Debootstrap process using the ext4 fs for root and it worked without a problem. When I tried to install Debian mounted on btrfs subvolumes, there are problems mounting root while booting so it crashes... Any clue if Debian supports btrfs subvolumes?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have Linux Mint (LMDE) on another partition and I guess I need to do some 'fixing' so I need to mount the partition. I can't, though, not by just clicking the partition (obviously?). I assume this is because I need root access to mount it.
how I can do this?:
1) CLI - mount via CLI by mounting at some point - for e.g., mine is /dev/sda3 so mount as ?
2) Use an 'editor' or file manager - such as Dolphin - how would I do this?
3) Use a Live CD/DVD - I think this way is unnecessary but it's a way, right?
Anything I missed? I guess gparted could mount it?
Which method would you use?
I think one could ssh into it but I'm not able to do that yet.
I need to exit the xorg.conf file which is recently really messed up.
I've tried to search online but I can't find anything that works on our netbook. The netbook has a default Squeeze installation. After inserting the microSD card (via a "microSD card adapter" into the built-in slot), when I double-click on "Computer" on the Gnome desktop, it shows "Multiple Card Reader", but I can't access it. fdisk -l doesn't show any new devices, but dmesg does show the following:

I can't mount /dev/sdb or mount /dev/sdb1 (fdisk only shows "sda1-3"). The system simply reports that "special device sdb does not exist", although during one attempt I did get a message saying "block device sdb (or sdb1) something...".
It's imperative that I can access this microSD card. It will be put into my mobile phone so I can have the Star Trek: The Next Generation theme tune as the ringtone. I'm sure you all - as will all of humanity - realise the importance of this endeavour
I am trying to install Debian in an old laptop. Of course, in this laptop there is windows installed and I want to respect it. My plan is to install Debian in a spare drive.Before installing Debian, I want to check what is inside each drive. In order to do that, I am trying to use the Debian installer CD. Then start an admin shell, mount the drives in read-only mode, and check their contents.
But when I run the command:
# mount -r -t ntfs /dev/sda3 /mnt/windows
I get the following response:
mount: mounting /dev/sda3 on /mnt/windows/ failed: No such device
I just installed Debian Squeeze onto my desktop and when i try to access it I get a dialog displaying:Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:Error opening '/dev/sdb1': Permission deniedFailed to mount '/dev/sdb1': Permission deniedPlease check '/dev/sdb1' and the ntfs-3g binary permissions,and the mounting user ID.

This is for an embedded Debian system.
I'm posting this here because I know the knowledge database here is reliable. I'm mounting a smartmedia card with pccardctl insert 0. I do not know where the device would be located in block, bsg, or in sX. I'm using fedora 12 for this.

View 5 Replies View RelatedAlright I am about to throw this western digital device out the door and drive over it. The back story is that I have done a Debian net install on an older tower PC laying around the office. I am going to use this tower as an FTP server to store and backup several other servers we have have. We also have an older Western Digital (WD) my book 1110 sitting here. I was planning on using the external storage as the repository as it is 1TB raided. Seems like a good plan, plug the device into the tower and instantly two new drives show up "External CD-ROM" drive: "WD Smartware" and then "My Book". When I click on the cd rom drive I get the .pdfs and executables that are stored on the device. However when I click on the "My Book" drive I get the message "Invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume 'My Book'.".

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been working with Linux for some time now and moved from "crash-dummy fedora" to LinuxMint and now I'm on Debian 8.I ... The system is freezing and the only way to get it out of freeze is to kill tty7, I log into tty2 as root(which can startx) and kill tty7 via pid...
At first I thought it might be that I have 10 virtual NICs on 1 physical NIC, but after removing them it still freezes after a few minutes of running. Now I am wondering if double mounting/bind causes issues,
Example: drive2 is mounted to profile2/MyStuff, but I also "mount -o bind" a folder inside profile2/ MyStuff/.opera to profile2/.opera..
This is what I mean by double mounting. Does double mounting cause freezing ?Because I have not double mounted, and it hasn't froze yet. and to be honest, I am double mounting/binding several config folders like .mozilla etc...Drives are SSDs, and I created a complete other drive with LinuxMint and it froze the same way after mounts.
I have one of my user's home directory on a seperate partition, and I was wondering if there was a way to only mount it when/if the user is logged in and unmount it if they log out.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have two remote systems which I have fstab entries for on the local system. I have them set to noauto, because mount fails during boot for some reason, but that's not the problem. For years I've mounted them in rc.local.
The problem is after I recently reinstalled Debian, when I mount them manually it always asks for my user's password. I've copied my user's pub key from the local to the remote system and put it in the user authorized_keys file (not root), like I always have. But it still asks for a password, and so fails to mount in rc.local.
I have a FUJIFILM FINEPIX S1800 digital camera that does not support USB transfer mode, it's PTP only.

Is there a way to have the camera mounted automatically when I plug it in and turn it on? It works perfectly on my wife's computer (Ubuntu 10.10).
just installed squeeze today, all went well but when I put a cdrom or dvd disc in it will not auto mount.. have to manually mount them from terminal. I've looked a /ect/fstab and do not see any problems there. Anyone else run into this problem on a squeeze install and fixed it?

I have a Linksys wireless G USB adapter. When I plug it in nothing happens, how do I install this hardware.
I also have a Vantec external USB hard-drive and when I turn it on it says it cannot mount the drive. How do I get this mount this drive. It is formatted NTFS, my windows back up drive.
This question is an extension of previous posts in relation to my removable drives. I have an external usb/ide drives and cowon iAduio7 music player. The former is always connected and latter occasionally. The first drive to be recognized gets allocated /dev/sdc1 and /dev/hdd respectively. Until ten days ago I would simply mount them manually after each boot. Recently I added them to my fstab file. It's fine only for this error message on boot.
Code:
/dev/sdc1 unexpected inconsistency.
fsck died with exit status 4
failed (code 4)
Control-D to continue
I found the following on the net
Code:
If a device is not being mounted during boot, it may be b/c the driver for that device has not been loaded yet at the time that /etc/fstab is read (and thus the device is not active yet and doesn't get mounted). If you want to make sure it gets mounted during boot, you may need to take a look at the boot sequence for your distro and make changes as needed. Another thing you could try is adding a "mount" command of your own to one of your boot scripts. Most distros provide a file with a name like "rc.local" which gets executed late in the boot process and can be used to add your own custom commands to execute during boot. Firstly I want to know which script do you edit and does that mean I have to re-edit the fstab after creating the script.?
Here is my fstab:
Code:
[sudo] password for siawacsh:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>

I have a question?! have a linux server which was administered by my good friend who has passed away and I have been asked to take over. the server has debian installed (installed oct 2008 and would have been the latest version) and I am looking to backup the smb shares to a external usb disc. I have formatted and mounted the disc and found a script he wrote to automate the backup run from a cron tab. Looking through the script the mount commands dont look quite right to me particulary as the owner will swap drives every day. everything else appears to be working fine! the command to mount in the script is'
mount /mnt/usb
and unmount;
unmount /mnt/usb
I think it should be' mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/usb
and to unmount . umount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/usb
am I talking nonsense here or I on the right track?
mounting my windows partition.. I've got it set up under /etc/fstab, but anytime I try and open it (as local user) I get permission denied.

I've installed debian squeezy recently and for some reason I have problems with mounting /home partition during startup.
There's an error:Mounting local filesystems...mount: special device /dev/mapper/isw_bbfedcffgi_Volume0p6 does not exist. failed
I've tried using fsck - no result the file system is healthy, I've tried formatting it once again (fresh copy, no user data) and it's not working. What is more mounting the partition manually goes well - I can read the data and write to it. All other partitions are ok.
I have no idea what's going on and why mounting /home fails. I've written this post on Polish debian users forum, but no response - only to give more info, so I'll put it here also:
