General :: Get Camera Not To Mount As A Filesystem On Connection?
Jul 11, 2011
I have an old Intel webcam that doubles as a standalone digital camera. When I plug it in, Fedora automatically mounts the memory for the camera as a filesystem.However, because it is old and clunky, if I try to use its webcam functionality after this happens, it crashes internally and nothing ever happens.Even if I unmount the memory, still remains "crashed".I know that if the memory was never accessed, the webcam would work, as this is how it is on Windows, and also how it was in a previous release of Fedora, which didn't automount

I am trying to mount a file image, like this
mount -o loop /tmp/apps.img /media/apps
But I get the following:
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
I try ext3:
mount -o loop /tmp/apps.img /media/apps -t ext3
dmesg says:
error: can't find ext3 filesystem on dev loop6.
I've also tried ext2, vfat etc. How can I detect the filesystem type of apps.img?

When I try to boot to OpenSUSE I get the following error during boot-up: unknown filesystem type 'reiserfs' could not mount root filesystem - exiting to /bin/sh$
This only started happening quite recently - before this I could boot to Linux quite happily.

I'm trying to run a persistent Debian distro on a USB thumbdrive, with the persistency data written in a mounted live-rw loopback file. However, the drive has to be formatted FAT32, and that poses a 2GB maximum limit on files, so I can't use the full 3GB space that is left on the drive after the Linux install. Can I make two loopback files and format/mount them as a single filesystem? If I can't I guess I'll have to repartition the drive, which I'd rather avoid.

I'm trying to mount a filesystem when the system boots, so i won't need to mount it everytime..
So what I did was copying the line of the filesystem I wanted to mount on startup from /etc/mtab:
Code:
And pasted it as it is, in the /etc/fstab file. when the system booted, it didn't work. not only that, I wasn't able to mount the filesystem at all, (it gave me some kind of an error) so I removed the line from fstab file and it all back to normal. how can I mount this filesystem on boot? (i'm using Fedora 12)

have a Debian server which I use to hold my home directory for my user account. I used to use Windows 7 and connect to my /home/username directory via Samba which worked great. I could access all of my files as if they were sitting on my local PC, but they were actually sitting on my Debian server.
Now I have decided to give Ubuntu 10.10 a try (looks promising so far!).One thing I'm not sure how to do is to mount my home directory from my server! I am able to open an sftp connection to my server, but not able to access them natively as they were /home/username on my local machine.I'm assuming I need to mount my home directory somewhere in my fstab before it starts up, but which protocol should I use? I'm used to using windows networking, but am trying to get more into linux.Should I use NFS?

I am developing a device that will run Linux as its operating system.The device is a small form factor X86 device with a flash drive exposed as a SATA-device. So it is not very dissimilar from any other PC running Linux.For several good reasons I am building my own "distribution", instead of using an existing one.What confuses me is how mount/umount of the root file system is handled.I boot my kernel with the commandline "root=/dev/sda1 rw" which works fine. But everytime I do poweroff or reboot Busybox complained about no /etc/fstab, so I decided to build one.Should I have an entry for my root file system? It seems like this is shadowed by the rootfs anyway. I.e. if I have the fstab entry "/dev/sda1 / ext2 1 1" mount still reports rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)/dev/root on / type ext2 (rw,relatime,errors=continue)My questions are:Do I need to worry? Will the drive be correctly unmounted by the kernel on poweroff/reboot?If I want to perform file system checking on boot, can I do that without resorting to an initrd?

I have just tried to update my kernel from 2.6.24.5 to 2.6.39-rc3 on a Slackware 12.1 distribution. I have successfully updated the kernel before, but it was from a newer distribution and newer kernel(Slackware 13.1 and 2.6.33.4). After I updated and rebooted, I got the following error:
Code:

I dont know anything about linux and just been assigned to amount a drive to it. here's what i did so far: Version of Linux using Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.3 (Tikanga) [root]# mount -t auto /dev/sdb1 /tmp/archive mount: unknown filesystem type 'ntfs'
when checking the /proc/filesystems, i noticed that 'ntfs' is not listed there, several forum suggested i try running 'modprobe ntfs'. If that is not found, you'll need a kernel with ntfs support. i'm so lost, where to i get the modprobe ntfs

Kubuntu 10.10 nicely mounts vfat external media as UTF-8, see for example my disk-on-key:

However, NTFS external media is not UTF-8, and it is giving this user a hassle as her native language cannot be represented in ASCII: Code:

I'm trying to get photos off my Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS but while Device Notifier pops up telling me I've attached a canon, and I can see it when I run lsusb, It's not actually being mounted anywhere, or creating a device for itself to be mounted with..I plug the camera in to the computer while it's still off, and I turn it off again before disconnecting (As I've heard this is the proper way to do this.) but I am still not getting a device. I've also tried the following advice (Although I'm obviously on openSUSE not Ubuntu).Ubuntu Forums - View Single Post - Unable to mount camera or import digital pictures.

I have digital camera (Canon EOS 550d) which I connect to my computer using a USB cable. I can see that the camera file system is mounted under "~/.gvfs/gphoto2-XYZ" where XYZ seems to be a dynamic device dependent string that changes every time I connect the camera.The thing is: I need the mount position ALWAYS to stay the same, so my photo management program (Bibble) knows where to download the images from.I am not sure how to do this, but I guess there must be a way to configure GVFS/FUSE or whatever is responsible for mounting the camera to use a fixed mount point (like /media/camera or something).

I have an Olympus D-560 ZOOM. I used to be able to download pictures from the camera with: SuSE, Fedora, early Ubuntu, etc. (I still can mount and download from my camera on these systems.) I now have Ubuntu 10.04LTS and no longer is my camera recognised. I cannot make sense of the forum threads on this topic, dating back to Ubuntu 8.0-something, that generally ramble on for endless pages without reaching a sensible conclusion (it's a bug, it's not a bug, it's because of gphoto2, it's a gvfs problem, etc.). So maybe there is a definitive answer why my camera that works on other linux will not work on Ubuntu, and maybe by now there is a real fix that does not involve me rebooting my laptop into an old linux distro.
`mount' shows the camera never gets automounted. Manually `mount /dev/sdb1 /media/camera' sometimes hangs and never completes, or sometimes answers immediately `mount: /dev/sdb1 is not a valid block device'. Output in /var/log is below.What's going on, and how can I fix it? I do not use, and I do not want to use, fstop, gphoto, gimp or any other specific software to access my camera (I have tried to download using these anyway and nothing works), I just want to mount the camera as though it were a flash drive in the same manner I have always done. Remember, this does not happen on other distros or early Ubuntu.Here is the relevant output notations in /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog.

I'm trying to get some photos off a Canon Powershot SX110IS that uses an SD card (right now there is a Gigaware 4GB one in it) but this computer does not have an SD card input, so I am trying to mount the device through USB. This has worked with a handful of other cameras I've used in the past.
When I connect the camera to the computer and power it on, I get
usb 1-5: USB disconnect, address 7
usb 1-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 8
usb 1-5: New USB device found, idVendor=04a9, idProduct=3192
usb 1-5: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
usb 1-5: Product: Canon Digital Camera
usb 1-5: Manufacturer: Canon Inc.
usb 1-5: SerialNumber: DA9C3D5C2D7F4E3EA806AA70BCDF3E28
So the kernel is at least aware of it. I tried letting thunar mount it, but it complains
thunar-volman: No property info.capabilities on device with
id /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_4a9_3192_DA9C3D5C2D7F4E3EA806AA70BCDF3E28.
I also tried letting dolphin automount it (yuck), but didn't get any messages about it. I checked the fdisk output and there was no ~4GB device, so I'm not sure that I can mount it manually.

I'm having some trouble with my Ubuntu 10.04. It had been working normally, and now my startup isn't occurring normally. The bootloader shows my Windows install and two different revisions of Ubuntu. Upon letting it load Ubuntu, however, it goes to BusyBox v1.13.3 and says "built in shell (ash)" and presents me with a functioning command line.
I'm comfortable with working on the command line, but does anyone know where to start with this?

I've had a look at some similar threads but as I'm very new to linux they're already a bit technical for me. Sorry, this calls for someone with patience. I gather from other threads that disconnecting an external drive without unmounting is a no-no, and this seems to be the likely cause. Now the disk is read only and I'm unable to change any settings through the usual control panel on ubuntu. I'm just not familiar with the terminal instructions. I tried to cut and past a few command lines from other threads but I got some warnings that proceding could damage data. Like this one: WARNING! Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause SEVERE filesystem damage.

Something very strange happened. Firefox was acting a little strange, so I decided to restart my system. When ubuntu started to boot it showed an error that said filesystem failed to mount. It gave me an "emergency" command line and told me ctrl-D would retry the mount. Why would this happen? I haven't modified any system files for a very long time. It told me to run fsck (I think thats what it was) and that seemed to fix the problem. Just curious as to what could have happened. Anyone else have this problem? Anything I should try to fix so this won't happen in the future?

when I try to boot into Ubuntu 9.10 the first thing that happens is this:
Filesystem checks are in progress
I have seen this on a few occasions and thought nothing of it, I have let them complete in the past and was able to boot no problem, but recently that has changed, whether or not I let the checks complete I get the following error:
Mount of filesystem failed.43708f-0498-4699-9fd5-1f52df0bc181
A maintenance shell will now be started.
Any thoughts on recovering this partition or at least gaining enough access to it to backup some data?

I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 on a dell desktop from idk when, its fairly old but regardless it was all running fine until about a week ago I got the infamous:
Mount of filesystem failed. A maintenance shell will now be started. Control-D will terminate this shell and start a new one. admin@ or whatever it is you get the point.
I've been trying all the possible solutions I could find and nothing seems to work. I just want to be able to use this computer. I don't care if I lose files, or have to re-install Ubuntu or any of that, if I can just get the thing running again. I've tried re-installing, and booting from the disc etc. none of which have worked. Basically, I just want to erase Ubuntu and re-install it.
