I am having problem with sdb1 (SFS file system ?) and sdc1 (external hdd)
I have recently set up an ubuntu installation on an old PC. After some fiddling with both it, and the windows 7 machine, I have managed to share all of my drives. However, when attempting to access them from ubuntu, only 2 of the 4 hard disk shares will mount, with the other 2 failing with a Unable to mount location, failed to mount windows share error message.

Can't mount external usb drives. There are no errors, they just don't show up anywhere.
Also Trash icon has disappeared from bottom panel, is inaccessible from Nautilus - "Sorry, could not display all the contents of "trash": Operation not supported" - and Desktop icons default to 'Keep Aligned' every time I restart.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am running 10.04 Lucid Lynx 64 bit. Whenever I insert a CD or USB flash drive, I get the error "Unable to mount - Not Authorized". I can, however, mount these things by using the mount command from the console as root. I suspect that either the component of Lucid which is responsible for automounting has a bug, or there is some kind of permissions bug with the way Ubuntu sets up the primary user. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a workaround? Should I file a bug report?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a windows XP Pro machine and also a Server running ubuntu, the server was built for me and the builder is no longer available for consultation. The server drives which were on my desktop beside my C drive were working flawlessly allowing me access until windows started running quite badly which meant I had to reinstall it. After the reinstall I could not see the drives displayed and I am unable to access them from windows. And also not able to mount them. The server has not been switched off at any time and does not even have a monitor or keyboard or mouse. I have not done anything to change any settings to it. I have zero knowledge of the system. My windows administrator password is exactly the same I have looked on the server and my files are intact I just cant access them from windows which I need to do.
I got the following details off the server:
KERNAL LINUX 2.6.27.5 - 117. fc10.i686
GNOME 2.24.1
MEMORY 881.4 MiB
Processor AMD LE 1620
Samba Server Version 3.2.4-0 fc10
I was told the drives should appear on their own but that's not happening I am not able to sight them at all file sharing and printer sharing is enabled.
I just upgraded from 11.2 to 11.3, everything seems to be working fine except that my other hard disk partitions are un mountable as my normal user. I used to be able to click on the drive in Dolphin and it would ask for the root password to mount it, but now it gives the error that the action is denied by org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-fixed auth_admin_keep_always <-- (action, result) What do I do to fixed this? I have checked as many settings as I can and can't find it. I would like to avoid editing the Policykit.conf file manually if possible (if that even is the right file).
View 6 Replies View RelatedNew server ubuntu 9.10 install with Samba set up. Drives were mounted before Samba, but after samba was set up and I can see the server on a windows network, I can not get the usb external drives to mount or be seen at all. I also added ubuntu desktop. I used this link to set up the server and samba. [URL]
The external drive is a box of 4 drives formatted as ntfs, worked fine before I set up Samba. I am assuming when I edited the fstab toward the end I did something, just not sure what. The drives are (or were showing up as) /dev/sdb1, sdc1, sdd1, and sde1. I tried to follow the wiki on how to maybe set up automounting and thats when I found they werent even showing up in fdisk. "Unable to mount location, failed to mount windows share"
I recently had issues with the latest version of the Linux Kernels and I got that fixed but ever since that has happened none of my Drives will mount and they aren't even recognized.

The other one mounts fine. They are all separate physical drives. Another oddity is in that it lists those two drives which are SATA as PATA, but I imagine that is something to do with my BIOS settings being on compatibility settings.
I have recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my machine as dual boot using WUBI but on a seperate partition to Windows. Loving it so far, but i cannot get any external drives to mount - i've tried pen drives, camera memory cards and hard drives but nothing comes up.
I have just tried restarting with a pen drive plugged in, and it finally showed something in the computer folder - "memory stick drive" is shown (and my internal CD drive, which i'm not sure was there before.), but i still can't access it and when I try to unmount it gives me the message

I have an Acer Aspire 3500 laptop that I'm running 10.04 on, pretty much everything works OK, and I don't appear to have any hardware problems (I've checked using Gnome Device Manager). When I plug in a USB flash or hard drive, I don't get any drives/devices to mount, although in Gnome Device Manager the USB device appears as a USB Mass Storage Device.
Running tail -f /var/log/messages produces this:
Dec 10 19:44:31 darren-laptop kernel: [ 5800.632058] usb 1-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4

After a bit of a rough install, I got 10.04 up and running on an Intel D845GRG motherboard. All seems to be working fine except for USB flash drives. My USB mouse and keyboard work fine, but the two sticks I have (Kingston and PQI) will not mount.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to unsuccessfully auto-mount my drives when starting up. I've made a script that sets me to the root using "sudo -s" and then mounts the drives. The commands to mount the drives work properly when entered into the command line, but when I try running them from an executable, they don't work. What might I be missing?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI installed 10.10 on my workstation but now my system refuses to mount two existing two data drives that were already there... sudo mount /dev/sdc /mnt/data-b gives me: mount: unknown filesystem type 'isw_raid_member'
I didn't change any BIOS settings... My BIOS is not configured for RAID at all, that setting reads AHCI, which should be okay for my kernel (using the stock 2.6.35-24).
I tried to force mount one of the drives with sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sdc /mnt/data-b
but this gives me an even stranger message:
"/dev/sdc already mounted or /mnt/data-b busy (neither of them are true...)
It's mainly the "isw_raid_member" thing that troubles me... I didn't and don't have a RAID system at all..
a few days a go I got Samba messed up and I decided to just reinstall Ubuntu. Ubuntu resides on an 80GB drive and I have 2 1.0 TB drives that I use for storage. At one time (pre-Ubuntu) they were connected to a VIA SATA RAID card and I had them on a software RAID under Windows XP. Both worked absolutely fine under Ubuntu 10.04 (which had bee progressively upgraded from the original install of 9.04.
Now, both drives have been given the same label, and neither one will mount because the file system type is reported as "via_raid_array" rather than the EXT4 that they both should be. TestDisk can read them and identifies the partition as a Linux partition, and the data seems to be there. I have even reformatted one of them and still, it will not mount.

I've been using 10.10 for almost a year with no problems. Then last week I plugged in my MP3 player (ONDA vx777le) and it did not automount as it usually does. I have since found that any USB stick will not mount any more either. They show up in lsusb

View 9 Replies View RelatedYesterday, I deleted/reformatted one of my internal hard drive which had two partitions. Now everytime I log-in, Ubuntu tries to mount the two partitions that no longer exist. The only way I can resolve this is by pressing "S" twice while trying to log in to skip the auto-mounting process. Is this problem in the grub or should I just disable auto-mounting?
Auto-mounting was enabled automatically when I installed ubuntu in May, so I have no idea how to disable it or how to mount drives that are not automatically mounted at log in.
I use Ubuntu 11.04 (gnome) and have a ntfs partiton that shows up in the "places" menu that is normally in the gnome panel. But I think that partition isn't mounted till I click on the entry in this menu (when I want to access it from any other place, shortcuts for example, that doesn't work).
How can I correctly mount all partitions I want on startup?
Recently I tried something in the /etc/fstab file but don't know if this is correct...
