Fedora :: Error Mounting External USB HardDisk?

Feb 2, 2010

I've right now installed Fedora 12 in my laptop, and when I try to acces my external USB Woxter HardDisk I get this error:

Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 12: Failed to read last sector (1953525103): Invalid argument
HINTS: Either the volume is a RAID/LDM but it wasn't setup yet,
or it was not setup correctly (e.g. by not using mdadm --build ...),

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 Installation :: External Harddisk Is Not Mounted - Not Visible?

Apr 7, 2010

I use dual booting, vista ubuntu 9.10. I have just bought a new 1T external harddisk i have used it on windows to backup some files. Now I want to backup some documents in ubuntu, but the harddisk is not visible, I can't see it, ok I think the term in Linux is that it is not mounted. Is there something else one should do ?

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

General :: Formatting WD My Book World Edition External Harddisk With Ext3?

May 18, 2010

I have a Western Digital My Book World Edition external harddisk with blue rings. I filled it up and now want to delete the data and start over. I'm set in my ways and have been accustom to reformatting harddisks periodically (sector maintainance, etc.) It's worked for me as I've luckily have not had a disk crash in 25 years.My webapp is not helping me with the reformat and neither is Western Digital tech support. I've heard that it was factory formatted with something called Linux ext3. Does this make sense? Has anyone had any experience with reformatting external harddisks being used as a NAS (home use).

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" ?

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 ?

General :: Mount External USB Drive In Debian To A Mount Point Based On The Volume Name

May 5, 2011

How do I configure my Debian installation to mount external USB drives to mount points based on the volume names of the drives? For instance, if I have a thumb drive with the volume name of "SWORDFISH," how do I have Linux mount it at /media/SWORDFISH? I'm aware that this can be setup in FSTAB, but that requires that I know the UUID of the device beforehand and that I take the time to set each external device up in FSTAB first. That does nothing for me when I have a thumb drive that has never been plugged into my computer before.

This seems to be setup by default in Ubuntu/Kubuntu, but is not working for me with a fresh installation of Debian Squeeze and KDE4. I've spent the past 2 hours Googling for a solution and have turned up nothing. UPDATE: My results are inconsistent. Sometimes Debian mounts devices to mount points based on the volume names, and other times it gives them generic mount points (e.g. /media/usb1).

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

Dec 17, 2010

I'm having some trouble with one of my system harddisks. It sometimes works without problems, but is not mounted on other occasions. Even when it's mounted, it's working extremely slow and programs using files from it may crash. On other occasions, however, there are no problems at all. 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:

Ubuntu Networking :: Samba And External Drive - Unable To Mount Location - Failed To Mount Windows Share - Dialog Box

Ubuntu :: Mount -o Loop - Flash BIOS Error "Intel UCode Loading Error" - Make Iso Images Bootsble From The Harddisk

Feb 19, 2010

I need to flash my BIOS to get rid of an error: "Intel uCode loading error". On [URL] I have found a tutorial, that looks to be fine. I can even see in the comments, that somebody have done this with success from Ubuntu 9.04, the very same system, that I use. Nevertheless I cannot make this bootCD with my Ubuntu 9.04, as it doesn't know the loop option to mount the image.

In the tutorial it says: "Requirements for this step is that you have support for the vfat and loop file systems in the kernel. Or you can have those features compiled as modules. In the latter case you can load the modules before the next step, like this:

modprobe vfat
modprobe loop"

loop doesn't seem to be present in my system, and the command modprobe loop returns an error that the module is not available. I tried to follow the tutorial anyway, but with no success. How can I get the module lopp? I also want to use it to make iso images bootsble from the harddisk.

Fedora Installation :: No Harddisk Or Network Activity No Booting

Nov 19, 2009

I have an acer aspire L-5100 with Vista and fedora dual boot configuration. Fedora 11 worked fine. After upgrading with preupgrade The system shows a strange behaviour. The startup screen ( with no the little f in the first ) is first blue with the white place in the middle , the filling with the fedora f very slow ( 5 minutes ) and then nothing. No harddisk or network activity no booting. <ctrl><alt><delete> works for rebooting. <altfx> for console not. Hacking <alt f2><esc> very often and fast leads sometimes to a console where then the boot process starts running and the system comes up with gnome.

Fedora Installation :: OT: Dell BIOS Always Boots Windows Harddisk?

Nov 14, 2010

I have a Dell Vostro with sda and sdb (the latter was installed by myself). I installed FC14 x86 64 onto sdb with /boot being on /dev/sdb8

I did not want to install grub onto /dev/sda as this is a shared machine. I thought that I would be able to use the BIOS's 'select boot device' to select the sdb disk and boot off that and get into FC that way.

fdisk verifies that /dev/sdb8 is marked as bootable and grub (via find /grub/stage1) confirms that it is installed on hd1,7 (ie /dev/sdb8)

However, no matter which hd is choosen as the boot device, Windows is always booted - I change the boot order to use: DVD, sdb, sda but it still boots Windows. It seems like the BIOS only wants to boot sda no matter what.
