Feb 13, 2010I encrypted my home partition with the YaST Partitioner tool, but now I can't access it anymore. After I encrypted it I rebooted the machine and thought that it would prompt me a password field to access the partition, but now I can't access it at all. I tried "mount -t ext4 /dev/sda7 /home" which gives me that error after I entered the password: "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda7, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so"
The info I get from "dmesg | tail" is: "EXT4-fs (sda7): VFS: Can't find ext4 filesystem" Before I encrypted it I converted the /home partition from ext3 to ext4 without any problems and it worked properly. After playing around with it I also discovered that /dev/sda7 got wiped out of /etc/fstab, but I entered it again.
OpenSUSE Install :: View/access/read The Files From Data Partition?
Dec 1, 2010I am a total noob when it comes to opensuse. I just read the reviews and comments from forums taht's why I wanna try this alternative. I have 1 physical drive that has two partitions. 1 is dedicated for my windows OS (20 GB) and the other for my data (approx. 100GB).
How can I install opensuse 11.3 to just 1 partition (20GB) and leave my data partition (approx. 100GB) as it is? Can I still view/access/read the files from my data partition after I have successfully install opensuse 11.3 to my Os partition?
OpenSUSE Install :: Sudden Failure Of BIOS To Detect New Harddisk?
Feb 5, 2010I have problems with my acer aspire M1201. I have added a 2GB RAM beside the 1GB stock RAM. Currently I have reformatted my stock Hitachi HDD 160GB and I have added another HDD in which it is a Samsung 500GB HDD SATA drive. I have successfully installed GNU/Linux Opensuse 11.2 OS in the new harddrive (Samsung). Besides all that, the other specifications are all stock. After 2 days of successful runs in the new OS and no problems at all, the OS hangs and fails to boot and displays this, Error 18 : Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS. I should mention also that while setting screensaver, when I chose OpenGL, the OS hangs and i have to hard-reset my pc. I suspect that the current BIOS version which is R03-B1 and product name ACRA8000-S03-990610-R03-B1 needed update due to new hardware. But currently there is no new downloads in Acer's website regarding my BIOS version. What should I do to run my Linux successfully? I should also mention that I haven't logged to the internet due to unsuccessful dialer which i have consulted my internet service provider and yet to rectify.

View 3 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Automount A Harddisk Partition - Does Not Mount Itself
Jun 21, 2010For 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" ?

Jun 18, 2011how 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 ?

OpenSUSE Install :: Deleting One Logical Partition Changes Partition Numbers Of The Others?
Oct 9, 2010I started withsda1 windows restore sda3 extendedsda5 swapsda6 /mandrivasda7 /SUSE 11.3
sda8 /SUSE 11.2I then made some changes with gparted (from PartedMagic 5.5) to create an ntfs partition to simulate a condition where someone may want to delete that partition and use the free space for linux. I then deleted that partition, sda2 then sda5 (swap) and taking some screenshots, went about resizing partitions to use that free space and then recreate swap. the intention being to create a basic guide on how to go about this.I have previously only had my swap at the end of the extended partition, deleting itand recreating it later had caused little trouble.I realize that a resize/move operation would have been a better choice.What I was not expecting was the partition number changes that occurred.
Code:
root@PartedMagic:~# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes

Apr 21, 2010I have little experience with Linux, took a course, read bulletproof linux. That was several years ago. My friend convinced me to set up opensuse kde with him, so I did.Set it up a few days ago on my semi-new Hitachi 1TB drive. XP was installed first, cloned from the previous (failing) drive, and took me forever to get it working.It was set up as:
Hitachi HD:
1st part: XP (250gb)
2nd Part: opensuse system
3rd Part: opensuse swap
4th Part: opensuse data
(2/3 may be swapped)
I still had 600GB unpartitioned and went to add a new 250GB partition via windows xp disk manger.Next thing I know, disk manager freezes and errors. I reboot for other reasons, and am greeted by grub (never used it before) stating ..well stating nothing.I tried the opensuse install DVD repair option and got corrupted video at first. Then I tried safe settings for booting the installer.I'm now in the YaST2 repair manager.I tried to recover partitions, but it's locked to scan only Partition 1, which is my XP partition. It says no valid linux root partitions exist.
I also tried loading the linux root partition with grub (didn't know the namescheme for the HD's, but I think it's devsda for HD0), no dice. I can't seem to find any hard drives through grub, but I'm unfamiliar with it.My goal is to get my xp back up and running. My guess is that XP tried to edit the partition table and screwed up something.The partition listing through YaST2 partmanager shows all my partitions.A good walkthrough would be great too, but at the moment I'm just going Really? It was that easy to annihilate all my bootable systems? I could also nuke the linux partition and use XP's recovery console and fixboot, then worry about the linux later. I haven't gotten it set up completely yet.

View 5 Replies View RelatedOpenSUSE Install :: Reinstalling OpenSUSE And Preserving /home Partition?
Sep 29, 2010I'd like to reinstall openSUSE 11.3 on a pc and would like to preserve the /home partition. The current partiton structure is
sda1 /boot
sda2 /swap
sda3 /extended partition
sda4 /
sda5 /home
When the installer gets to the point to set up the partitions it offers something like
sda1 /
sda2 /swap
sda3 /home
I'm not sure which option to take now. I assume I choose the option to edit the partitions but I'm not clear how to preserve the /home as it's now got a different partition number or does that no matter as long as I choose not to format it? Also, to replicate the original partition structure I'd need to delete the partitions and add them in the correct order but would that destroy the /home?I'm a bit confused with how it will work.
