Ubuntu :: Fail To Mount /home On Resume?
Aug 11, 2011
I have an Acer Aspire ZG5 which I have installed Ubuntu on. There is a 8Gb internal harddisk which has the system files on (i.e. / ), and a SD flash drive of 16Gb that has the /home partition on.
The /home partition successfully mounts on boot. However, when the netbook resumes after sleep the /home partition is not mounted. Closer inspection with Disk Utility, and attempting to mount the disk within Disk Utility gives the following error:
Code:
Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with: mount: according to mtab, /dev/mmcblk0p1 is already mounted on /home mount failed

I've been trying to find an answer to the following problem : whenever my PC is put in Suspend/Hibernate mode, it fails to recover when pushing the power button. This happens both with automatic suspend or manual suspend. I've been reading this problem, and mine is quite similar, but no solution is given.
uname -rmi
2.6.18-194.11.4.el5 x86_64 x86_64
PS: this computer is not connected to Internet, no update possible.

I have a dual boot with Arch linux that share a /home partition. Whenever ubuntu starts tho it tries to do a check on the /home partition and fails.... it gets an error saying unable to check then drops into a shell. I have to run it in recovery mode frequently then start it up and it usually works, but i have to type startx after logging into a shell before that

Something very strange happened. Firefox was acting a little strange, so I decided to restart my system. When ubuntu started to boot it showed an error that said filesystem failed to mount. It gave me an "emergency" command line and told me ctrl-D would retry the mount. Why would this happen? I haven't modified any system files for a very long time. It told me to run fsck (I think thats what it was) and that seemed to fix the problem. Just curious as to what could have happened. Anyone else have this problem? Anything I should try to fix so this won't happen in the future?

I got a little problem with Xubuntu here. Every time after I boot the system, I find one of my partitions from fstab not mounted where it's supposed to be. I do mount -a, and it replies: "mount: /dev/sdb6 already mounted or /mnt/data busy". Checking lsof of neither device nor mount point gives me nothing, and checking the output of mount I see device isn't mounted anywhere.
It gets better than this: after some time, device can be mounted just fine, this time is from 11 to 12 minutes. If something is doing anything with my device that takes whole 11 minutes, how come I don't know what it is? How can I mount device on boot? Some more (ir)relevant facts:
1. This partition is the biggest - 376 Gb
2. Here's my fstab line for this device:
Code:
/dev/sdb6/mnt/dataext3defaults02
3. After the installation, I changed the mount point in fstab, and using /dev/sdb6 instead of UUID is a result of blind experimentation

Here was I get on my screen.
I don't know why this is happened. But before I rebooted, I could not see any content on Windows like update or shut-down (if I tried to install something and it asked for confirmation, that window was blank. Or before I shut down, I had to push enter, since that windows was blank.)
I don't think I installed anything and computer was working just fine before.
I don't want to reinstall everything again.

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.

A few days ago I upgraded from debian 7 to 8. First I update, upgrade and dist upgrade - change source list and again update, upgrade and dist upgrade.When inserting a USB disk on key, it works okay. When plugging my WD "My passport" backup USB disk it does not work. The automatic mount works, but the disk can be accessed.I tried to do it manually in a format that worked on debian 7..Manual mount fails too.
umount My passport
fdisk -l (to see device name)
mount -t vfat -o rw /dev/sdb1 /media/kuku/usb_mp4
dmesg | tail

Running Debian stable. I added the following command to rc.local and made it executable:mount -t cifs -o username=ted,password=computer,uid=mooreted,gid=users "//192.168.1.121/Storage Volume" /mnt/vortexAfter rebooting dmesg throws the following error:
[ 21.400697] CIFS VFS: Error connecting to IPv4 socket. Aborting operation
[ 21.400708] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -101
However, if I run the command as root after the system boots it works fine.Been using this method on other distros for over a year. No idea what the problem is.

Just playing around with things for the heck of it.
I would like to mount my home directory in a ramdisk. I have tried:
mount --bind /home/mooreted /dev/shm
But not sure if that's actually running home in RAM.

Running Ubuntu 9.10 for some months without any problems, but with no obvious trigger it won't boot this afternoon. (I'm not aware of any updates happening this morning, when everything was fine.)and it gets stuck; searching around shows lots of people get a similar message but then boot normally; this may have been happening to me in the past but I don't pay much attention to the boot up.The recovery console appears to load fine but I haven't a clue what to do with it!

So a few hours ago I opened up GPartEd from a live CD, and one of my operations was moving the /home partition up a little. In the process, it was changed from /dev/sda8 to /dev/sda7. Well upon the next boot, /home failed to mount. I edited /etc/fstab (and apparantly DropBox had just commented out the line that mounts /home so I have NO IDEA how /home was being mounted before) and still no dice. So every time I boot, I have to go to manual recovery and type mount /home before I can boot.
Is there some way I can mount /home without making a "git 'er done" script?
On a side note, Google Chrome has refused to open since the partition editing.
Oh, and, in case it is helpful, here's the contents of /etc/fstab:
Quote:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
[Code]....

I would like to have my USB stoage devices to be mounted under my $HOME automatically when I insert them. Those devices have been partitioned, formated with XFS and also given a UUID for this purpose. I think I should use udev's rules and have also done some attempts like this one:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{ID_FS_UUID}=="c195a25a-c03e-4cd8-9d86-9b9219acfeb4", OWNER="uqbar", GROUP="uqbar", RUN+="/bin/mount /dev/%k /home/uqbar/work"
Of course it doesn't work. I'm running Kubuntu 9.10 and Ubuntu 9.04 and would prefer a solution not tied to a specific desktop.

I have created a 75g partition on a hard drive that I would like all videos to be accessible to all users of the computer. I understand that I can mount to /home/user/video but I cant find a method to make user the current user that is logged on.I have built up a PC that I want to use as a place to download movies and music. I then want to create a uPNP server to share the media over my LAN. I vaguely understand what I am talking about and I think Vuze is the best program to meet all these needs. Its not a huge issue because there is only a single user that will ever be using this PC but if this is possible it will help me greatly when I migrate my main PC to Ubuntu. I am using Ubuntu 10.4 and I am not afraid to play on the command line.

When upgrading F12 to F13 I had a fatal error when I selected to update grub so I opted to do a fresh install of grub and the upgrade proceeded without any further problems. When I went to boot the system (dual-boot with Win 7) grub gave me error 17 "cannot mount selected partition". So I booted into rescue from the install disk thinking that maybe reinstalling grub might help, but when I ran "grub-install /dev/sda" I got the message that "/dev/sda does not have any corresponding BIOS drive" (I have Windows on SATA 1 sda and Fedora on SATA 2 sdb). I exited rescue mode rebooted entered BIOS and swapped the drive order and restarted. Success!... Well almost. The progress bar goes all the way across the screen to the point the login screen should come up then it hangs...

I haven't been using Ubuntu for a couple of years. Yesterday I decided to fire up my ubuntu box and upgraded from 8.04 to 10.10.
The upgrade went fine, but when I boot it tells me that the /home dir cant be mounted. It allows me to Wait, Skip, or Manually mount it. If I skip I can log in and mount the partition that contains my /home folder so I know that nothing is corrupt. I'm sure my fstab just got overwritten during the upgrade, but, since its been so long, I don't recall how to (correctly) fix it back.
Cliffs:
--Upgraded from 8.04 to 10.10
--/home dir is on a separate partition & is not mounting properly
--How do I set it up so that my /home dir mounts on boot?
I'd just try messing around with fstab myself, but I really don't want to lose any data.

I had my home folder on it's own partition, and I decided to do a clean install of 11.04. when I put the disk, when I went to configure the partitions, I I re-formatted the / partition, and I selected my home partition as my new home partition and I made sure the format was NOT selected. after everything got done getting installed and rebooted. 11.04 just creates a new home directory and does not use the whole home partition.
I still have my data saved on it, when I go to the disk utility it shows the same amount of used space before I did a re-installed. If I go to the files system and click on home it shows my user from the last install and it shows the user from the new install. when I click on the user from last install it shows 2 files: Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop
and: README.txt
get my home partition mounted for my home folder
also when I set up the new install I used the same password for access for the ring keys and for login

i just installed the new vision of Ubuntu 11.04 , i created 3 partitions 1 for swap, the other one for / and the last one for /home, but by mistake instead of selecting /home i chose /boot, and i want to change it now, i already tried changing my FSTAB and i ended up with a corrupted Desktop when i restarted. i had to change my FSTAB using VI command here you have a copy of my fstab:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier

I've been playing around with stuff lately, and I was thinking that I could theoretically move my personal files to another partition, have it mount under /home/User... then change the system partition to 6 or 7GB and go about my merry way...That way, if I need to reinstall the os, or when the next release comes out, or even install another primary system, I could just wipe the system partition and keep all my data on the HD...just make an fstab entry like:
Code:
/dev/sda3 /home/User btrfs default 0 2
or something, and them BOOM! it's done. I am the master of my domain.

I'm looking for a central location on my network of 1 Karmic and 3 XP Pros for my Documents, Videos, Music etc.
I have an empty 1TB drive in my Karmic box currently formatted as one NTFS partition and I was thinking of mounting that drive in the Karmic /home folder.
Will Karmic be all right using an NTFS partition as the /home folder?

I have Ubuntu Server installed in one machine and ubuntu desktop in 3 more machines. What I would like to have is, authenticate the clients using a central user DB and also the home folder for a user should be available in any client machine in which he logs. I see that openLDAP takes care of authenticating clients but what application to use to mount the user's home folder from the server to the client machine on logging.
