General :: Automount A Harddisk Partition - Does Not Mount Itself

Jun 21, 2010

For whatever reason /dev/sda3 (at /tydelik) does not mount itself (like all the other partitions) when the system reboots.

In YaST's expert partitioner it says that:

Quote:

An asterisk (*) after the mount point indicates a file system that is currently not mounted (for example, because it has the noauto option set in /etc/fstab).

Here is the /etc/fstab :

Quote:

I don't see a noauto option. Is it hiding somewhere?

Also, if I say the following then it seems that /dev/sda3 is ext2 and not ext3 (as YaST says).

Quote:

Firstly, how do I specify /dev/sda3 to be mounted by default (because I thought it would unless there is a noauto specified), and secondly, why is YaST not showing the same settings as when I say "mount" ?

Debian Configuration :: USB Harddisk Does Not Automount?

Jan 6, 2011

I have a small issue where an USB harddisk is not automounting. CD's, USB pens etc. are automounting without issues, so it is a little bit strange.I am mounting it with UUID, because I want the mount point to be the same everytime.As you can see from the fstab, it is NTFS.

dmesg
[92.388083] usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4
[93.079778] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0bc2, idProduct=0502

Fedora :: Mount A Harddisk From Rescue CD?

Sep 21, 2009

My hard disk is failing, and I want to rescue the files from it before it is un-bootable. I was planning to do this by booting a live cd, making a .tar file of /, and then burning it to a cd or dvd. The disk is still bootable, but I'm getting warning messages that 73 sectors are bad. I have another hard disk ready to plug in, I just need to rescue the files, and then install Fedora 11 64-bit on the new drive, at which point I will overwrite / with the / from the .tar file.

Basically I was just wondering how to mount a hard disk to recover files from a rescue cd. I tried to make a .tar file of / already, but that failed because the system was active and changing the various system files at the same time that tar was trying to package them.

Ubuntu :: Can't Load And Cannot Mount Harddisk?

Feb 17, 2011

I'm running ubuntu 10.10 on my Toshiba Satellite L645 laptop. Few hours ago, when my laptop was in screensaver mode, i couldn't login again, it was just blank black screen So i switch to terminal 1 by pressing Ctrl + Alt + F1 and login from there. Then i restarted by "sudo shutdown -r now". I did this a few times before and it's no problem. However, this time when the computer boot, I got the errors like :

---many similar errors like the following line---
mount: mounting /proc on /root/proc failed: No such file or directory
Target filesystem doesn't have requested /sbin/init.
No init found. Try passing init=bootarg
and redirected to <initramfs> prompt

So i googled and tried the liveCD and try to fix the hard drive with fsck. My partition resides on /dev/sda1 and using ext4

[Code]...

That's 3 blocks of information i got by following instructions on the IRC channel. I just forgot to paste the first command and now can't remember what it is

Fedora :: How To Automount Another Partition

Sep 4, 2010

On my computer for the last couple of years I have been running Ubuntu and Windows XP in a dual boot system. Due to some unsolvable problems in Ubuntu, I decided to try out Fedora. I created a third partition on my computer and into this partition I installed Fedora. Now when I boot my computer I can either run Fedora or Windows XP. Eventually, I plan to get rid of Ubuntu completely. But for now the Ubuntu partition is still on my hard disk; I can't boot up with Ubuntu anymore, and that's OK. I don't need to run Ubuntu, but I would like to be able to access the Ubuntu partition, since there are files there that I want to keep.

At least I want to be able to read and write to the files in Ubuntu. How can I automatically mount the Ubuntu partition so that I can work with its files from Fedora?

I'm pretty sure that to get the Ubuntu partition to mount, I need to enter some lines into the etc/fstab file. Does anyone know what I should enter into Fedora's etc/fstab file so that the Ubuntu partition will be mounted?

In my Ubuntu installation the partition is named DiskF, it is partitioned in the ext3 file system. In Fedora when I look at /media/DiskF, it is empty.

When I run [code] blkid in a terminal here is the output:

What are the commands that I need to put in /etc/fstab so that when I boot my computer in Fedora DiskF will be mounted?

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Automount USB To Static Mount Point

how to get openSUSE 11.2 to automount a USB drive (Creative Zen to be precise) to a static mount point? At the moment KDE is filling up my media folder with disc-x folders and the podcatching software keeps picking the wrong one to sync to.

Ubuntu :: Clone Harddisk To A New Harddisk?

Jun 18, 2011

how can I clone my installed ubuntu to a new harddisk? with 32bit ubuntu I have used:tar cvpzf -> create a tar file on my external nas system. after that I have done a restore tar xvpfz - worked with 32 bit.

Alternative I have mounted both disks and via another linux partition I have used:
cp -rvbdR /source/* /target

both methodes worked with ubuntu 32 bit. With 64 bit ubuntu I can NOT get it to work. error message after booting the clone: /var/lib/gdm/.ICEauthoriy ..

I can see that /source/var/lib/gdm has different rights as /target - will be part of the problem.
This did not happen with the 32 bit ubuntu - but why ?

Fedora :: Way To Automount A NTFS Partition On 13 ?

Jun 15, 2010

I recently installed Fedora 13 (the KDE spin). It detects correctly my other NTFS partitions and will mount them perfectly if I click on it using Dolphin.

I would like to mount one of them automatically after booting (or logging in, doesn't matter). My first idea - and supported by a coulple of Google searches and previous threads - was to put them on on /etc/fstab.

But to my complete surprise they aren't there. Where does Dolphin (or KDE) keeps information about partitions? How to set them to automount? Also, fstab refers to my linux partitions as UUIDs not the device names - how does this work?

What should I do to set a NTFS partition to automount on Fedora 13?

Ubuntu :: Harddisk - Cannot Mount On Other Occasions - Shows "UUID Not Found"

If it's not automounted, I may be able to mount it manually but it sometimes shows "UUID not found". If has a lot of SMART errors:

Fedora :: 13 - Disable LUKS-encrypted Partition From Automount?

Aug 30, 2010

I have encrypted a partition while installing Fedora 13, and I need to disable its automount - I will mount those manually.

But even though I commented out the corresponding line in /etc/fstab, I am still asked for the passphrase for the partition at startup.

How to completely disable this behaviour - and how to mount the partition manually afterwards?

OpenSUSE Install :: Encrypted Home Partition Automount?

Jul 24, 2011

First off I'm new to the openSUSE community and would just like to say So, to the issue at hand. I recently switched to openSUSE 11.4 from Debian. I noticed the setup didn't have an option encrypt the home folder like it does in Debian, so not being aware of any other way to encrypt it, I created a new partition, backed up my current home directory, created a new partition and mounted it as home before copying in the contents of the backup to the encrypted home partition I created. Now of course it is askingme to put the crypto password in at each boot, which isn't ideal because it's a family machine and no-one would remember the password but me. Is there any way of being able to automount the encrypted partition without having to put the key in every time? Or better yet an encrypted home folder that doesn't require the key to be put in on each login (as in Debian) without even using a dedicated partition.

Ubuntu :: Can't Boot - Automount Error For Data Partition; / Is Md0?

Apr 15, 2011

My Lucid LTS Ubuntu Studio 64 (amd) won't boot anymore; / and /home each are software raid 0 partitions.

I have a Multimedia partition (also ext 4) which I attempted to chmod with a GUI program (I forget what its called now) to enable all users read/write access. Looks like I inadvertantly fstabed that partition to be mounted at boot-time (normally my password was required in order to mount it).

I tried to logging out and back into my OS to see if the partition was now writable but it wasen't; instead a filesystem error was noted. I realised then that my partition was IMPROPERLY labelled and I was in a tired state and didn't remember how to rename it & rebooted to make sure all was ok. But it was not:

An error occured when mounting /media/Ubuntu unknown filesystem type "Multimedia"
mountall: mount /media/Ubuntu [1334] terminated with status 32
mountall: filesystem could not be mounted /media/Ubuntu
Boot: recovering journal

From my generic Ubuntu system on a non raid partition, I finally removed the space in the 'offending' partition: Ubuntu Multimedia to UbuntuMultimedia. And I changed the permissions for it. But if I try to boot Ubuntu Studio via recovery; booting in low res is unusable, and it gets stuck if I SKIP mounting. So I am left with manual boot or drop to a shell. I will have to use an editor like vi or nano and the command prompt. I know that I likely only have to comment out a line in /etc/fstab but I am only familiar with nautilus or gedit for this type of operation. And since this OS is on a raid partition its not 'seen' on the live CD..I would need someone to offer me clear steps to follow with the non gui editors otherwise I'm in trouble... I just wanted to use that partition for video editing and now I am locked out of my system!

Ubuntu :: Gnome3 - Change Automount Options For A Specific Partition?

Sep 1, 2011

I have a specific NTFS partition on a USB drive that I wish to enable execute support for. The only way I've found to do this is to add the partition in /etc/fstab with a umask. This poses some problems:

1. Only root can mount it, making it a pain to mount (open terminal, `sudo mount (path from /etc/fstab)`, enter password, close terminal).
2. The system will hang at start if the UUID is unavailable (or, the external disk is unplugged). I run several servers from my machine, so if I do a remote restart it will not come back up because of the hang.

Is there a way to specify to FUSE (which I believe is the handler for auto-mounting in Nautilus) that this partition should have execute access to files?

Debian Installation :: Systemd - Automount Windows Partition / USB Devices In Jessie

May 11, 2015

There seems to be no documentation on how to automount partitions and USB devices under systemd in Jessie. (Overall, systemd entirely lacks any useful documentation or GUI configuration tools -- all very cryptic and hidden.)

I created custom files to enable automounting. I put them in /etc/systemd/system -- this may not be the right place, but it works.

Kernel note:
This does not work under the old Wheezy kernel linux-image-3.2.0-4.

To automount my Windows partition so I can access its files, I created:
/etc/systemd/system/media-windows.mount

The name of the file must match the mount point -- in this case, /media/windows

My file notes the device and file type, plus an fmask option so all the Windows files don't seem to be executable:

[Unit]
Description = windows mount to /media/windows
[Mount]
What=/dev/sda1
Where=/media/windows
Type=ntfs-3g
Options=fmask=111
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

The file ownership must be root.root. Apparently it doesn't need to be executable.

After creating, enable with:

sudo systemctl enable media-windows.mount

and it will mount on the next boot.

I read elsewhere that the before running the enable command you should run a start command:

sudo systemctl start media-windows.mount

but that didn't work for me.
