General :: Mount Prevent All Access To Hard Drives From Bootable CD

Jan 25, 2011

I'm working on creating a bootable Linux CD to distribute a sandbox environment to customers that will work on multiple PCs.One requirement of this environment is that we do not want the user to have any access to the underlying hard drives in the computer to prevent any accidental and/or malicious damage. I can prevent the disks from automounting with a few udev custom rules, but is there any way to prevent/block the user from manually mounting the hard drives after boot up.

Fedora :: Can't Access Any Of The Other Hard Drives From The Other Drives?

Jul 5, 2011

I have Fedora 14 installed on my main internal drive. I have one Fedora 14 and one Fedora 15 installed on two separate USB drives.When I boot into any of these drives, I can't access any of the other hard drives from the other drivesll I can, but just the boot partitions.Is there any way of mounting the other partitions so I can access the information?---------- Post added at 12:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 AM ----------I guess even an explanation on why I can't view them would be good too.

Debian :: Mount Multiple External Hard Drives ?

Dec 20, 2010

How to mount multiple external HDD's. I'd like to link or mount the music, torrents, and general files from several external hard drives and apply permissions (in some cases I only want the mount or link to be read only).

My setup:
- Seagate Dockstar running Debian squeeze (it's headless so I don't have a gui running)
- Two external HDD's with one partition on each (250GB and 400GB)

What I'd like to accomplish:
1. Mount the external HDD's to /media/HDDs as read/write (this is already working using udev and autofs and it's available in samba)
2. I'd like the MUSIC directories on both external HDD's to show up under the same mount point. In other words I want the MUSIC folders (from both HDD's) to appear as one large library of music. And I only want this to be readonly. It will be used as the library for mpd and/or squeezebox.
3. Mount a directory used to download torrents to. I'll probably pick on HDD as the target for torrent dowloads. But let me know if you have any other ideas regarding this.

Since I have the first one done, how would I accomplish 2 & 3?

Ubuntu Servers :: Cant Mount Or Partition Or Format Hard Drives

Apr 8, 2010

I have a server with 3 hard drives

1 400GB
2 1TB

The 400GB has the OS and SWAP while the 1TB are going to be used as storage....

Now for the problem, when I have both the 1TB drives in I can not format or mount either 1TB drives. Says Device is in use or "The device file '/dev/sdc1' does not exist"

Now if I take one of the 1TB drives out I can format, partition, and mount it no problem...it only seems to be a problem when both drives are connected...

Red Hat / Fedora :: No Longer Can Access Hard Drives

Jul 11, 2009

I installed Linux on my Y drive, and all went well until I tried to boot into XP again. I can't access or install an operating system to my other three hard drives, C, X, and Z.I think that during the install my hard drives were changed to something other then NTFS, but Linux won't access them either.

When I use my Windows XP or Windows 7 disc, it says the drive has 0mb free, and it can't install until I delete the partition, then reformat. I don't want to do this obviously, because I don't want to format all of my data.When I go to Places > My Computer it lists my CD drive, Filesystem, and the Y drive. It doesn't show my other three hard drives.Under Palimpsest Disk Utility I can see my other three drives, but I can't access the data on them yet.

Ubuntu Networking :: How To Share/Mount Hard Drives Over A Local Area Network

Mar 19, 2011

I have a computer, the one I am on now, with Ubuntu 10.10, it should be completely updated... and I can network with other computers, I can access Windows XP and 7 shared locations on other computers, and I can also get Ubuntu on other computers to access this computer's shared files.What I can't do, however, is share my hardrives that are on this computer, I have tried sharing them in /media/ and etc, but it is not working, apparently you have to mount them in some mystical way.

Another problem is getting Windows machines to access Ubuntu computers on the network - which I believe is a Windows problem, so I can figure that out some other time, but importantly, I want to be able to share my hardrives over the network.

If someone can give me some instructions to mounting and sharing hardrives(internal), and even my DVD-Drives, and portable USB devices, would also be fantastic - since, in Windows you can just right click, "share", and it's done.. It is a very useful thing to have, and I don't want to use Windows on this computer anymore, but I have no choice, really, if I can't share my storage to the other computers.

Fedora Hardware :: Hard Drives Keep Crashing - Mount: Wrong Fs Type, Bad Option, Bad Superblock

Aug 26, 2010

I am writing as yesterday, my fourth hard drive within 2 years crashed. Is that normal? One was crashing 2 years ago, one in winter 2009 and 2 just within 2 weeks. What can be the reason for so many crashes? I heard maybe the power supply? How can I find out if that's broken? The voltages at least in BIOS seem normal. The SATA controller? How do I know if its broken? Can I just but one PCI-E card with SATA adapters? Is it the motherboard? Theres not much more in my computer... As well, its wired that my good-old 160 GB drive never crashed, only constantly the bigger ones. Here some typical error code from mount and dmesg:

Code: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb2, missing codepage or helper program, or other error

Ubuntu :: 11.04 Dual Monitors ATI 5770 Network With No DHCP 4 Hard Drives To Mount Starcraft 2

May 23, 2011

setup amd64bit created a live DVD of the 11.4 64 bit burn pope inside went to install put selected the second option because putting it on a 60G vertex ocz super fast drive. used the entire drive for ubuntu. have mirror dual monitor installed the proprietary drivers from amd.go to Ubuntu software center type additional drives install and install the proprietary drivers from ati you should be able to figure that out then lauch the ati catalyst control and setup your 1 and 2 monitors so that they are correct.

ok now install Wine ubuntu software thingy tip wine don't do the beta right now im stuck on installing starcraft and mounting the other hard drives will get back to you and make a better guide on this.oh by the way if your Internet isn't connecting automatically you might need to set your IPV4 setting manually this is because you have set your router with DHCP disabled. Code needed for install:

nautilus $HOME

PLAY ON LINUX is working for SC2 Sois crashes though and during install sont font was missing neede to guesse correct button to install.

More useful code

To mount the drive ro (read only):Make a mount point.mount First open a terminal.Then type these commands (assuming the partition is /dev/hdb1):

Code:

sudo mkdir /mnt/music
sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/music -t ntfs

Note: if the partition is not /dev/hdb1 you will need to adjuxt accordingly.To make the mount automatic at boot you need to edit fstab:

Code:

sudo gedit /etc/fstab

Add this line:

Quote:

/dev/hdb1 /mnt/music ntfs auto,users,ro 0 0

Again, adjust your partition accordingly if needed. Copy and paste the contents of /etc/fstab (in your next post) and type in a terminal "sudo fdisk -l" (w/o quotes) and copy and paste the output.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Can't Mount CD And DVD Drives

Feb 16, 2010

I just installed openSUSE 11.2, but I can't use my two optical disk drives /dev/sr0 and /dev/sr1 because the operating system can't find them. These drives aren't listed in my fstab file:

/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160815AS_9RA615CK-part5 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160815AS_9RA615CK-part1 / ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 1

sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0
debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs noauto 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0

Should they be listed here? If so, what do I need to write in order to reference them correctly.

OpenSUSE :: Mounted Hard Drives - Root ?

OpenSUSE :: Mounting Hard Drives As User?

Aug 4, 2010

OpenSuse 11.2 64bit When I select a hard drive in Dolphin file manager it asks for the root password. I would like to gain easier access to the drives. The Yast Partition Manager lists all of the drives and has a dialog box to change this i.e. user can mount the drive. Can we change this feature on the run, while the system is running ? The Fstab file is not listing all of the drives, so I cannot just edit the config here.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: DMA Disabled On All Hard Drives?

Oct 24, 2010

Recently I noted that when transferring files between my HDs the CPU usage increases up to 80~ 100%. After the transfer ends, the cpu goes back to normal. The system monitor reports no process consuming those cycles, yet there is something eating up The CPU.

Doing some research I concluded it was probably something related to DMA and UDMA. which is weird because all my drives report they have UDMA6 enabled in the BIOS, and in windows I don't have that problem.

Running hdparm -d gives me the following error: /dev/sda3: HDIO_GET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device for every partition on every device, though this does not actually tell if DMA is on or off I suspect it is off. I checked if this was a suse exclusive problem, and to my surprise, debian and aptosid, behave exactly the same. The only reason I didnt note before is cause I had never transfered so many files before, (about 250GB) and the small transfers I did were over quite quick.

I'd like to make emphasis on:

1.The problem is the same regardless if I transfer 5GB or 150.
2. In windows my cpu does not go above 10% at any time during the transfer.

I have 3 sata HDs. All my OS's are in sda (120GB) I use sdb (250GB) and sdc (500GB) as data and media storage. ALl drives are Western Digital with less than 2 years of usage, and pass all smart tests with flying colors.

CPu AMD x2 5400 @ 2.8GHz
4GB DDR2 800MHZ
Mother board A780G M2+ SE

OpenSUSE :: After Upgrading To 11.4 No Drives Will Auto-mount

Mar 13, 2011

I was using 11.3, everything worked fine Upgraded to 11.4, now no drives will automount. As a result applications like Nero and K3B cannot find my DVD drive. I can access the drives from an application like VLC where I can enter the device path /dev/dvd

Dmesg and tail -f /var/log/messages output the following error:

I suspect there is a bug or incompatablitiy with HAL/dbus/udisks but I cannot track it down.

Ubuntu Networking :: Mount And Share When Booted?

Mar 15, 2011

in a nutshell im trying to share 2 HDD's in same machine with several windows machines1. auto login so no welcome screen.2. auto mount the drives3. share the drives with/without password 1 is fine, i did resolve issue 2 with "storage device manager" but no matter what i do i cant get it to load correctly as i cant remove the option "mount file system in read only mode" so i cant create/move/delete anything. i did also change the owner for when it mounts off root to my user, but still no avail.and i can share the drives using ubuntu, but i also have samba.not important

Code:also another 2 Q's for after i have sorted this, i need ubuntu to shut down when i simplypress the off button as this will have no mouse, keyboard or TFT attached.so then i can simply press the on button and within a min or so i can just connect to my 'network drives' and then also to enable a remote desktop viewer, i did try the inbuilt 1 but couldnt connect with my win 7 machines

Server :: 2 Separate External Hard Drives With ESata To Minimize An Electrical Failure To The Drives?

Mar 26, 2011

I am building a home server that will host a multitude of files; from mp3s to ebooks to FEA software and files. I don't know if RAID is the right thing for me. This server will have all the files that I have accumulated over the years and if the drive fails than I will be S.O.L. I have seen discussions where someone has RAID 1 setup but they don't have their drives internally (to the case), they bought 2 separate external hard drives with eSata to minimize an electrical failure to the drives. (I guess this is a good idea)I have also read about having one drive then using a second to rsync data every week. I planned on purchasing 2 enterprise hard drives of 500 MB to 1 GB but I don't have any experience with how I should handle my data
