Ubuntu :: One Or More Of The Mounts Listed In /etc/fstab
Sep 21, 2010
I have UBUNTU 9.10 Karmic Koala over Thinkpad R-61i. Whenever i boot my system i have the following message waiting for me,
One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted:
swap: waiting for UUID=00e09251-80bb-43dd-8a11-61e975fa3e09
Press Esc to enter a recovery shell
And once i press esc, my UBUNTU loads properly.
The file /etc/fstab have following content
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
What i need to do repair this. And make my UBUNTU to perform a normal boot.

I "upgraded" to Karmic and now my computer won't start. It shows the grub menu, I select the first Ubuntu option, and it shows the white logo. Underneath the logo these words appear, and it does nothing:Quote:One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted: /boot: waiting for UUID=338c820e..Press ESC to enter a recovery shell

ubuntu 9.10. Won't boot. Not a new installation, no new hardware. When I boot it up into 2.5.31-22-generic safemode it says: One or more of the mounts listed in etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted: /home: wating for UUID...
Booted up w/ live CD, fsck says that /dev/sda3 is clean I have a 320 GB hard drive, 20 GB is the linux boot, 2 GB is swap, and the rest is /home. Palimpset Disk Utility can recognize the 20 & swap, but says the rest is unrecognized.

no idea what went wrong. computer was apparently shutdown halfway through installing major system updates. now booting into terminal(gnome?), and displaying error messages: one or more of the mounts listed in fstab cannot yet be mounted: (esc for recovery shell) /: waiting for /dev/disk/by-uuid/[loooooong string of aplha-numeric(a/#) babble] /tmp: waiting for (null) swap: waiting for uuid-[another (diffrent-but-similar) string of A/# babble]~~user input: esc (the phrase: '^] pops up)
[Code]...
i'm over my head. i tried everything from chmod on 'lock' to gethost (which turned out to not be installed.) nothing is working yet.

I have installed Fedora 12 i686 Live to a 200 mb partition on an external drive. Before the install I created a 6.7 GB ext3 partition and a 45 GB ext3 partition. The live cd copied the image to a 200 mb partition.
partition 2bce0f9d-53a6-4ec2-b5ad-1a6915c74260 is 45 GB
partition 4683EB23BED2EB34 is 102.6 GB NTFS
partition b7240ff1-0807-42ba-e172-bff5872519ad is 6.7 GB
[code]....
Will creating an entry in fstab sdb6 and sdb8 allow the fedora distrib dvd to install to the external hd? How do I create the entries?
I have a raid0 hd with windows xp pro. When i try to shrink the partition using anaconda, I get a disk error and the comper locks up. I have to shut off the ups to reboot.

I have a usb-hdd at one location that I use for backup purposes.It is listed (by its specific label, not uuid because I don't want to go through the hassle of changing this when changing backup drives or adding one at a different location.Now, since upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04, I get the following message during boot when the usb-hdd is not present and thus not attached:The disk drive for "/media/backup" is not ready yet or not presentI need to press S to skip mounting manually, whereas 9.10 just ignored that fstab entry and continued booting. How can I get the old behavior back? Is there an option I can give in fstab that mounts the drive at bootup when present and ignores it when not?
Perhaps an even better solution would be to let the drive be mounted according to the fstab entry whenever it is attached (be it at bootup or at any other moment): is this possible?elated to that: are drives unmounted/mounted in a suspend/resume cycle?

I have multiple ubuntu machines and I connect to one through an NFS share. I have done this for a few years without issue. However, since re-installing ubuntu and upgrading to 10.4 I have a problem with my system hanging when the remote shares are lost.
Basically, I can power down the machine downstairs, and my main machine then has a fit. I can not open any folders in ubuntu, nor can I shut down. If I try and shut down the system hangs, last time it hung for 8 hours before I had to kill the power.
These are the lines in my fstab
I don't know what I've done wrong, or how I can prevent this from hanging. I have googled the heck out of this as well and can't seem to find an answer either.

I've had two hd's in my box forever. for more space and backup reasons. Well I have started running the Debian Squeeze distro since December. I've had many issues, some are still unresolved. but now I'm running into major headaches with the fstab. Specifically dealing with/wondering why UUID's are used instead of the old /dev/hd? I was a little annoyed when I tried Kubuntu to find /dev/sd? used instead of /dev/hd? but that was workable. But the UUID's are a nightmare. Here's my problem.
My main box is finally giving up the ghost. The mobo is dying. So in order to do some tests I took my hd bundle (my two hard drives with their cables) physically out of the box and temp installed them in a test box. I wanted to do some benchmark and other tests. I got all kinds of errors. I found that the system wasn't recognizing the UUID's listed in fstab. My concern is when the new mobo gets here next week I won't simply be able to plug the hd's in like I always have been and just let Linux reconfigure itself (Debian used to be good about this). I really don't want to have to clean reinstall if it's not needed.
So for this I have two questions. WHY developers decided to drop using /dev/hd? or even /dev/sd? ?
And is it possible to revert fstab's listings back to the old /dev/hd? settings. In debian fstab had lines commented out showing how each partition was listed in it's /dev/hd? status during install.
I'm getting really sick of all these archane changes in ALL aspects of linux that don't seem to have any good explaination or need.

I've apparently changed my fstab file and now my boot drive fails to mount. The original file is still there "fstab.BAK". How do I rename the current fstab to another name and rename the fstab.BAK to fstab? Since this is read only in the /etc directory I have not been able to make this happen from a command prompt.

I'm having difficulty getting a usb device (garmin edge 500) to mount. I believe the behavior is that it mounts the first time after startup but not again.dmesg of failed mount:

I mistakenly unplugged my 4th Generation Ipod Nano while Rytmobox was transfering files, the ipod is working great but Ubuntu refuses to recognize it. I don't dee it anymore in /media and Rytmobox doesn't recognize it anymore.This is the result of sudo fdisk -lQuote:
Disk /dev/sdf: 7971 MB, 7971016704 bytes
35 heads, 41 sectors/track, 1356 cylinders

I moved some win98 drives into my 10.04 server, and would like to add them to my fstab file.Do vfat partitions have uuid's?If yes, how do I get that number?If no, I can use /dev/sdc1, and /dev/sdd1, can I get an idea what the fstab line will look like?Do I need to create the mount points (say, /WindowsCdrive) before the fstab will mount the partition?

What the hell is wrong with 11.04? One day I wake up and find all of my mounts functioning properly, the next day many are missing. I've been running with the same fstab for years. The problem isn't only with cifs shares, but even with internal ext4 shares. I'm so disgusted I'm about to run to Windows after 10 or so years of prompting people to move to Linux.

On my same box are two slackware-installations: one slackware64-13.1 and one slackware32-13.1.
There is an ext Hitachi-hd plugged on my box. With slack64 the ext hd has the uid of the normal user, so I can copy files onto it as user. With slack32 the ext hd has the uid of root, so only root can copy files onto it.
The mounting is "on the fly" with power on/off of the ext hd and NOT set in fstab. How can I change the "automatic" mount-defaults in slack32, that the uid is set to normal user instead of root?

Instead of mounting as something normal(like sda1), one of my drives mounts as /media/286CC2A6397A0F2A and(presumable because of this) doesnt show up in Storage Device Manager, so I can't auto mount

Since I've upgraded to Lucid RC1, when I insert my SD Card it mounts as read-only. The write-protected switched isn't on and my card isn't corrupt. I've tried chmod and chown to no avail.Does anyone know a work around so that I'm able to write to my SD Card?

I had it working perfectly everything worked including my headset. The only problem was certain programs were too quiet for my taste and seeing as i have a laptop and cant manually turn up the speakers i looked for a solution and found
Code: [URL] I followed those directions to try and boost the poor sound volume that has plagued me in ubuntu distros. Instead sound sparsly works. It is quieter than was, and if chrome is open at all no sound will play at all in rhythmbox or amarok(the play button dont even works it just sits at 0:00) Only after chrome closes does it play my music files again but only on this partition. As now my windows partition thats also located on this fakeraid just magically disappeared.
how to fix this as i dont even know what i did to begin with. how i can trash kde and start over from within gnome(havent tried to see if it works there yet though) EDIT: Logged back in to gnome and everything works fine. The missing partition is auto mounted like i wanted, the sound is perfectly fine. Obviously something got screwed up in the kde config but i dont know what or what to look for as i have never used kde before.

Here is my entry in the fstab:
192.168.1.11:/mnt/array1/Our_NAS media/Our40NAS nfs auto,_ne
tdev,rw,hard,users,intr 0 0
Upon reboot, sometimes it would mount automatically and sometimes it would not. I have not discovered any specific pattern. It is very random. Sometimes it would go many reboots without mounting and on the next it would mount it. I tried putting timeo paramter, played with the parameters, but still have the same issue. My laptop is connected to a wireless network. When I do mount -a or if I go to Places everything mounts great. It just simply will not mount all the time automatically upon boot, and after wireless connection is established.

I have several NFS entries in my /etc/fstab file. Each entry generates an error during boot (from /var/log/boot.log):mount.nfs: DNS resolution failed for macpro.dpc: Name or service not known mountall: mount /mnt/BaseLines [656] terminated with status 32
This occurs even if I specify an IP address in fstab rather than a host name. I was really surprised by that. The odd thing is that by the time the system is up, not only is DNS working as expected, but the NFS shares are mounted as expected. I'd just ignore it for now, accept that it prevents Apache from starting since some of the server's files live on the NFS shares (this is a development system). It appears that the DNS resolver isn't running when the mounts are attempted and that they are attempted again later, after the resolver is running.
I did an
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get upgrade....

I had a problem with Ubuntu 10 trying to mount a non-existent directory, mount/DRIVE_F/R&RMT . It would post an error message, wait for acknowledgement (or timeout).
The only cure for this incredible annoyance was to manually create the missing directory and path.
This works, EXCEPT THAT now instead of the (Gnome) desktop coming up, the empty directory I created comes up, and I have to close or minimize it.
I can't find where in the boot process the command to mount this occurs.
I need a clear explanation of the complete boot process from cold boot to Gnome GUI exposition.

Is there a way to access remote mount points that were created within the "Places" dropdown or within Nautilus? I haven't been able to locate a mount point for these.
I know I can create a mount point using fstab that will solve my problem but I was hoping for something using these automount procedures as it's really clean.
I just want a way to access these remote shares via terminal when created within Gnome.

I have been able to plug my iPhone in, and Ubuntu (10.04) has been able to see it immediatly. I was able to browse any pics etc. AND, I had the ability to SSH into it (Places>Connect To Server). In the connect to server dialoge, I clicked on the drop box and had several options including SSH. Now, there's nothing in the dialogue except "Custom Location". So, what happened? My iPhone no longer mounts and I have no SSH option! And I have not updated anything and made changes. I have tried 2 different cables and different USB ports.

I recently installed a newer kernel to get the open source driver for my ATI card, but am now getting the following error between booting and logging in: Warning: unable to find suitable fs in /proc/mounts. Is it mounted? After doing some research I can see it has something to do with apparmor. My questions are:
1. Can I somehow get rid of this error message? Or rather, is there a solution for this problem?
2. If not, as seems to be the case, is my system safe and secure? Will I face any issues by ignoring this error?

Let's say I have a machine exporting 3 paths via NFS.
Code:
/exports/foo
/exports/bar
/exports/bla
I would like to know if there is a way to determine how many clients have each export mounted at any given time. I don't necessarily need to identify which client has mounted what, just the number.
Code:
/exports/foo is mounted by 3 clients
/exports/bar is mounted by 1 client
/exports/bla is mounted by 0 clients

I have this problem with my Canon powershot A630. I connected it to the computer via USB. Ubuntu detects it, ask me if i want to use nautilus or f-spot to see the pictures in the SD card (it says that there are photgraphs in the media), so i go for "open folder" option, and the window shows up totally empty. Te only file i see in the card is ".fir" extension wich i use for upgrading the camera firmware. I know there are pictures in the sd card because i can see them using the camera.

I have a Buffalo Drivestation (model HD-CELU2, 1tb) attached to my network.From my ubuntu desktop I can go to the menu, select "connect to server", put in the ip and share info, and it mounts perfectly.I can open the share and browse eadwrite, but when I try to mount it from a terminal or within fstab, it will still mount, but I cannot see any files that are on the drive. I have about 12gb of data on it, but like I said when I mount it using "mount -t cifs 192.x.x.x/share blah blah blah" I do not see any of the files.If I do a df I can see that the drive has files on it based on the free space available, but if I do an ls nothing shows.

I installed 10.04 as I heard the ipod touch support in Banshee / rhythmbox was as good as itunes for synbching music files. However with the base install I was unable to transfer to my ipod by dragging files over to it.I have now spent a week trying different things from google searches etc. This has left me with a system that now mounts the ipod but doesn't display it in banshee or rhythmbox I was mostly aiming to get this working ..
