Fc11 installed well, it was related to a particular sata driver perhaps The installation went well up to the reboot, and then displayed the message saying that LogVol00 was not found. 3ware sata raid card, usually it installs without error

im a rookie at configuring linux and i have problem booting slackware 13.1 just installed. i get a message similar to this Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown- block(8,4) i got this one from another user who has a similar problem, they say i should fix lilo.conf and it actually was pointing to a wrong partition so i fixed it. i also fixed /etc/fstab to make it point to the right partition /dev/sda3. but after fixing the files, it still wants to load something in /dev/sda4, i dont know why so what should i do next, please explain with commands and not just words. edit this is my lilo.conf
# LILO configuration file
# generated by 'liloconfig'
#
# Start LILO global section
# Append any additional kernel parameters:
append=" vt.default_utf8=0"
boot = /dev/sda3

I've read hundreds of threads on this problem but they seem to be intermittent and the resolution has been using a different kernel version.
I'm using the latest kernel but I still have this problem
Running Logical Volume Manager gui and attempting to extend the volume results in the same error.

I have Fedora 12 (Fedora-12-i686-Live.iso) installed and booting in a VMWare workstation (version 6.5.3). I am able to login as the LiveUser.
I need information on how to access the drives on my host which is WindowsXP. My C: on the host is shared, and my network adapter for the VM is "NAT".
The only directory listed in my /mnt directory is "live".
My Fedora enviornment is "bare bones". There is nothing installed except for the original files from the "iso" loading procedure.
I also have been unable to get the VMWare tools installed, and I don't know if this is related. I don't mind bypassing this if this isn't required. My only desire right now is to access my C:

I've just updated to f12 from f11 and I can no longer mount 4 of my hard drives. The hard drives used to be in a raid array on a highpoint raid card, I removed this partitioned and formatted the hard drives and have been using them for about the past year without a problem. I am using a Asus P5E-VM motherboard. All hard drives are running ext4. The only thing I've really tried is noprobing the effected hard drives to no success.
p.s. I don't want to repartition/format these as they have some data on which I'd prefer not to loose.
# uname -r
2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686.PAE
# mount /dev/sdb1
mount: special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist
#blkid
/dev/sdc: TYPE="highpoint_raid_member"

shall explain my problem step by step! so that you all can understand!
1. Out of 120gb hardisk, i created an 100mb in the first cylinder of the harddisk and installed the "symantec boot magic" for dual boot option after switching on the system.
2. Next 70gb is for windows and installed the same.
3. Rest were for "Linux" !! In which i created on 100mb for "/boot" loader files, then one 1gb for "swap" area and the rest of the memory for "/" mounting point.
4. After all, i installed the "VMWARE" in windows, and while selecting the mount of linux, i selected the respective linux portion, and did the other settings.
5. Once done with this, i powered on the machine in vmware, but it was saying "BTMAGIC" not able to find, install again..
6. Cant we not mount the linux via "vmware" which is installed in windows, as i had used "symantec boot magic" for mounting windows/linux??

I'm trying to do a fresh Fedora 14 install from usb live stick. On installation got to partition program and since I want my old /home partition I pointed the partitions as they're supposed to be and apart from /home marked all partitions to be formatted to ext4. After the format or in the end of it came up a prompt I couldn't past. The following link shows a pic of that prompt:
[URL]
What should I do to complete the install? I have partitions:
/
/home
/boot
/swap
Solution: Burned the image on CD and installed from it.

i try install fedora 10 from cd live. But i can't. the partitions are unable to mount. i recive a message:
Quote:
DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error. No Reply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
And from windows boot, and works. why no mount if the live-cd did this?

Everything was working great with my FC12 box. I think the Fedora Gods must be punishing me as I had recently downloaded an image for another distro, but was only trying to install it to usb and play with it on another computer!
Then I tried to boot and I got an error message:
Code:
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[code]....
Can't mount root filesystem
Boot has failed, sleeping forever. I obviously don't understand the boot process well enough to fix this problem, so I'll describe what happens in more detail. (Feel free to correct my terminology so I can communicate in a more concise manner next time!)
1) Bootloader comes up fine and I'm able to select my kernel. (This problem affects all kernels)
2) Then as usual a whole bunch of text goes flying across the screen identifying hardware.
3) During this hardware identification, at the point where all my disks are being identified sd 1, sd 2, sd 6... I get the error shortly/immediately after this.
I cant tell for certain if its immediate because so many mount messages are spewed and I am not sure how to 1) pause the screen or 2) scroll the screen or 3) output this information to a file. But it does sit long enough on the disk identification which is right before the mount errors. I was able to look at a previous dmesg and noticed that dracut comes right after the disk identification, so I think the mount errors are being generated in dracut. (Now whether dracut is the problem or not is another issue) I am able to boot using a rescue usb and mount my LVM manually and then browse the root filesystem, so at least my data seems to be safe!
my /etc/fstab:
Code:
UUID=7acf1074-64bb-4a73-9558-f9657f712756 /boot ext4 defaults 1 2
/dev/mapper/vg_willowtree-lv_swap swap swap defaults 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0

Whenever I insert a USB drive (or plug in my Motorola Droid to copy files to it), a window pops up that says 'Unable to Mount File System'. Not Authorized. The drive shows up under the Places menu, but if I click on it I just keep getting the same error.

Every once in a while I get this error when I plug in my external hard drive. I'm a bit worried I might suffer some kind of data loss. I'm trying to get some more information about this. I have been using this hard drive with Windows 7 previously so it is most likely NTFS I think.

I am unable to mount Windows shares on Fedora 12. From Nautilus, I can navigate to the shares, but when I attempt to open one I get a dialog "Password required for share ... on ..." asking for username (prepopulated with my username), domain (prepopulated with MYGROUP) and password. I have the same username on the Windows box, but when I enter the password and click Connect, the dialog just pops up again. I'm not sure what "domain" is, tried with my Windows workgroup name, no good. If I blank out either username or domain, the Connect button is disabled.
I tried using the mount command:mount -t cifs //192.168.0.2/... /tmp/mnt -o username=adrian,password=...,iocharset=utf8,file_m ode=0777,dir_mode=0777
That did work once, but now gives the useful error message:mount error(5): Input/output error
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)
I can run Windows instead on the client machine, and that gives me access to the shares, no problem.
I have libsmbclient-3.4.5-55.fc12.i686, but that was installed a month ago. I don't see any more recent changes to anything relating to the samba client. I've never had to enter a password to access Windows shares. Actually, it looks like the problem may be on the Windows side, although as far as I know, nothing has changed there. Using smbclient with debuglevel set high, I see failures with this error:SPNEGO login failed: NT_STATUS_REQUEST_NOT_ACCEPTED
Every now and again, I can connect to one or more shares, but after a few attempts, I can't connect to any more. Tried rebooting the Windows box, but that's had no effect. Oh, and "smbclient -L" shows domain as the host name of the windows box, but anonymous login (smbclient -L -N) shows domain as the workgroup name.

I use F10 at home and while away from work on my laptop. Recently I could get the VPN sorted out ( I can now connect to the vpn (ppp0) server at work from home or anywhere else). I am trying to mount a windows folder that is on the work server on my F10 box at home through the VPN connection that is first established.What I know about the windws server
servername
sharename
username
password
When I try this
sudo mount -t cifs //pxxxx/home/abcd /mnt/dir/ -o username=abcd,password=xxxx
I get this error
mount error: could not resolve address for pxxxx: Name or service not known
No ip address specified and hostname not found
I think the VPN connection is established successfully. I have a ppp0 connection under ifconfig with an IP address after vpn connection is established.In windows I just map the network drive (\pxxxxhome) username=abcd, password=xxxx and mount the folder as "abcd on pxxxxhome"

I have no idea what I'm doing so here goes: I installed Fedora and clicked the "encrypted" box during the process. What I want to do now is "browse" the volume using "File Browser" but I only get messages like, "Unable to mount location, org.freedesktop.DeviceKit.Disks.Error.Failed: Not a mountable file system". Why cannot I not see the files? I have the password. I would like to be able to move, delete, rename, etc files but that seems impossible because I cannot access the drive.

I have a bootable utility toolset that I put together with Fedora 14, one of its primary functions is to map a user designated share via script and access information from it. The command that I used, that functioned perfectly, in Fedora 14 was:
Code:
sudo mount -t cifs -o user=provided.account.name //file-server.mydomain.com/share/images /mnt/source

I am trying to install linux kernel manually, for this I had compiled linux-2.6.36 with minimum drivers and features. Note that ext2, ext3, jffs file system support and sd ata_piix drivers are set as inbuilt kernel modules.
I had two hard disk for my Intel x86 box sda and sdb. I have running linux on sdb from which I can access sda. sda has one partition sda1 as ext3 fs.
I had created following directories at sda1 root, bin, boot, etc, sbin
After compiling kernel, I had copied bzImage, system map files to boot folder. then using 'grub-install' I had installed grub on sda. after installation I edited grub.conf to setup kernel image.
grub.conf
Code:
After this I booted sda by changing HDD boot priorities,And wow I got grub prompt -- linux kernel booted but as soon as it tries to mount file system it dies with error,
Code:
I accept that I dont have binaries for init and no initialization stuff in /etc, but I think problem is I am not able to give correct rootfs to kernel.

I have a Dell Inspiron 1720 running Ubuntu v10.04 with a wireless card.My desktop is a Dell Optiflex running WinXP.The desktop is connected via ethernet cable to a Linksys wireless router. Certain folders on the desktop are set for sharing. Up until early last week I was able to access the desktop folders from the laptop with no issues.Suddenly I am now getting this error "Unable to mount location Failed to mount Windows share" whenever I try to access the desktop folders from the laptop.I suspect an upgrade is the culprit, but not sure.
