SUSE / Novell :: NSS Volumes Fail To Mount?
Sep 25, 2009
I have a media server running OES2 on SLES 10.x after the network admin applied a patch to the system the machine will no longer mount the NSS volumes. I am relatively experienced with using linux, but I primarily use red hat and fedora so all these NOvell tools are a bit foriegn to me. I need to get the data off the volumes and restore the drives (ext3) asap. I dont want to screw around with eDirectory or OES2 unless I have to.

I am running SUSE 11.1 on a 80Gig IDE HDD, I have added a 160 SATA HDD which I wish to use as storage.
fdisk reports it as /dev/sda1 - W95 fat 32 LBA. What would the fstab entry be to make the disk mount automatically on boot, so that it shows on the desktop ready for use.

Anybody knows how can I mount and unmount a floppy within the desktop and/or dolphin filemanager in KDE 4.1? If I run dolphin I can see a floppy icon on the left, clicking on it seems to activate a reading of the floppy, then I have to go to /media folder and click on /disk folder to display the floppy files, then if a right click on the floppy on dolphin the only option I get is to hide the floppy shortcut, there is no option for unmount the floppy. I tried to make a desktop shortcut to floppy by right clicking on the desktop folder and selecting new device floppy and entering /dev/fd0 on device location, and clicking okay. Even that does not have the unmount command when I right click on the desktop shortcut, so the floppy gets stock in mount state.
also I dont see an applet or the so called plasmanoid when I click on the plasma icon on the right of the task bar and click add widget, on kde 3.5 I have the media applet on the task bar, it worked like a charm, I give a 1000 thanks to the developer of the media applet.
Any ideas on how to mount and unmount my floppy? It is a standard internal floppy, which is connected to the standard floppy controller on the motherboard. The only way to have access to it is logging into kde 3.5 and have the media applet/widget in the taskbar, and then works like a charm, I can mount it or unmount it any time. But I would like to try the new Version 4.1.3 (KDE 4.1.3) "release 72.4" that I'm running. I believe this is the latest from the opensuse 11.1 KDE 4 STABLE repository, so I know I have the latest patches for KDE 4.

I've got several language multimedia CD-Rom's, made for Windows 95/98/98 SE and 2000, that I'm using by means of my daughter's old PC (Win 98 SE O.S.). However I noticed, also, that you can perfectly use them even with Windows Vista. What I'd like to know is if you can use them even with Suse/Novell and (why not?) OpenSuse Linux.

how to install a D-Link Access Point on Suse 11.0 or steer me toward documentation that will do that? I configured the device on XP following instruction from this forum and the AP configured perfectly.The AP is plugged directly into the network port on the computer. It *should* function correctly without a router. I tried a restart and Suse has no idea it's there. The computer is currently configured for a wired connection which needs to be changed. The computer itself is going to be used as a small home storage server.

I have a disturbing problem with my monitor which goes to sleep (or ??) after few minutes if my comp is not used and most of the time I have to restart my comp.I disabled everything in Powersave , but nothing. I did have that problem in previous versions of SUSE, but somehow, I solved that. I cant remember what I did then.

I've pre-partitioned my HDD and want to install 11.2 on the second primary partition.However, when using the installer, I can't get Suse to install on the prepared 20gb partition - it keeps insisting it wants to install on the large unallocated section of the drive.
I find the partitioner somewhat hard to use and the answer may be staring me in the face but I can't see it.

New Suse 11.3 installation with Gnome desktop. Added K3B using Yast2, and after completing the install of K3B, there is no icon for K3B! Instead there is an "X" and the text for K3B in it.From the main menu -> more applications -> multimedia, is where the K3B icon is.Yast2 is supposed to install any dependencies needed or warn if it can not find any missing dependencies. What is missing, or is it a permission problem? All the other application icons seem fine.

The software use to work well here, but now I got this when I try to run it
sparky: error while loading shared libraries: libtk8.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
But I can not find it.
I also tried
cd /usr/lib
ln -s libtk8.4.so libtk.so.0
ln -s libtcl8.4.so libtcl.so.0
but this does not work neither.

I have 9.10 and notice that when I look in Places none of my volumes/partitions are mounted - if I click on them I have to enter my user password to authenticate to gain access. My problem is that (with some help) I have set up rsync so it runs when I shut down my PC and backs up my Home folder from a partition on sda to a partition on sdb - this is great but sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
I have done some tests and discovered that if I use my PC and never manually mount my backup sdb partition the rsync does not work (I also have GAdmin-rysnc so I can run manually backup but this also will not run if I do no mount the sdb volume). However, if I do mount the sdb backup partition and close down/restart then the backup works. What I need is my sdb backup partition to be automatically mounted every time I switch on - can this be done? I'm sure I had this working in 9.04 (auto mounting) but 9.10 seems not to like it.

I got a new computer today, a Compaq Presario CQ56, with Windows 7 preinstalled, and I want to dualboot with Ubuntu, but I'm having some problems. I'll explain what I've done so far, in case I did something wrong.
When I popped in my 10.10 Live CD, I was surprised to see there was not "install alongside existing operating system", which I thought I remembered from the last time I installed Ubuntu, but I chose manual partitioning and continued. I'd never done this before, so I quickly learned I had to first create a (couple) partition(s).
After freeing up a large amount of space and rebooting twice as recommended, I booted off the Live CD and opened GParted, intending to create a Ubuntu system partition, one for swap, and one for my home folder. When I right-clicked on my unallocated space, I got the error message "It is not possible to create more than 4 primary partitions". After a little googling, I found I had to eliminate one of my primary partitions and create a new extended partition, which I could then partition further. Noticing I had a partition that didn't seem important, HP_TOOLS, I googled and found this.
When I inserted my flash drive, it didn't automount. When I tried to mount by right-clicking and clicking "Mount", nothing happened. I also cannot mount the HP_TOOLS partition, nor any other. They don't mount when I click on them in the Places menu, and they don't mount when I right-click and choose Mount.
My main question is "Help! How do I install Ubuntu?", but I think if I can create these partitions, which requires mounting the drives (I think), I can figure the rest out.
A screenshot of my GParted window is attached, if that helps. (I couldn't see how to insert it without a URL)

this is all wrong:
# cd /root
# mkdir ./mnt
# mount /dev/sda7 ./mnt
mount: /dev/sda7 is already mounted or mnt is in use

I inherited a 3ware 9550SX running a version of gentoo with a2.6.28.something kernel. I started over with CentOS 5.6 x86_64.tw_cli informs me that the 9-disk RAID 5 is healthy.The previous admin used lvm (?) to carve up the RAID into a zilliontiny pieces and one big piece. My main interest is the big piece.Some of the small pieces refused to mount until I installed theCentOS plus kernel (they are reiserfs).The remainder seem to be ext3; however, they are not mounted at boot("refusing activation"). lvs tells me they are not active. If I try tomake one active, for example:root> lvchange -ay vg01/usrI get:Refusing activation of partial LV usr. Use --partial to override.If I use --partial, I get:Partial mode. Incomplete logical volumes will be processed.and then I can then mount the partition, but not everything seems tobe there.
Some of the directory entries look like this:?--------- ? ? ? ? ? logfilesIs it possible that the versions of the kernel and lvm that wereon the gentoo system are causing grief for an older kernel (andpossibly older lvm) on CentOS 5.6 and that I might have greaterfortunes with CentOS 6.x ?Or am I missing something fundamental? This is my first experiencewith lvm, so it's more than a little probable.

I have been searching for 2 days and cannot find an answer. Apparently Sax2 isn't available in 11.3. It looks as if many are having the same difficulty. I've tried xrandr and tried to edit /etc/X11/Xorg.conf with no success.Copying a working xorg conf file might be a fix, I don't know.

to get flash 10 working. I just decided to update to 11.3. Bought a 8.0GB USB stick to copy files to. USB DISK icon on visible on Desktop. mounted on /media/USB DISK Clicking on device properties it is read only. I can change permissions but that is only temporary. Looking under my computer it is formated as vfat device name is /dev/sdb
I can't copy any files to it. Can't see in terminal even being root as well. Almost started the Partitioner in Yast but didn't want to accidently crash the system. That WOULD be my luck Can't find a way to format it via GUI interface. Can I use something like fdisk in terminal. I guess I need to format it as ext3.

We have a Centos 5.6 server mounting two iSCSI volumes from an HP P2000 storage array. Multipathd is also running, and this has been working well for the few months we have been using it. The two volumes presented to the server were created in LVM, and worked without problem.We had a requirement to reboot the server, and now the iSCSI volumes will no longer mount. From what I can tell, the iSCSI connection is working ok, as I can see the correct sessions, and if I run 'fdisk -l' I can see the iSCSI block devices, but the O/S isn't seeing the filesystems. Any LVM command does not show the volumes at all, and 'vgchange -a y' only lists the local boot volume, not the iSCSI volumes. My concern is that, the output of 'fdisk -l' says 'Disk /dev/xxx doesn't contain a valid partition table' for all the iSCSI devices. Research shows that performing the vgchange -a y command should automatically mount any VG's that aren't showing, but it doesn't work.
There's a lot of data on these iSCSI volumes, and I'm no LVM expert. I've read that some have had problems where LVM starts before iSCSI and things get a bit messed up, but I don't know if this is the case here (I can't tell), but if there's a way of switching this round that might help, I'm prepared to give it a go.There was absolutely no indication there were any problems with these volumes, so corruption is highly unlikely.
