Hi there,
I "upgraded" my Debian-testing to unstable, I had several problems and I
managed to resolve most of them. However I still have some problems with
one thing, my third hard-drive cannot be mounted. On testing it was
mounted thru fstab (its three ext3 partitions) and it was ok, however
now they are not mounted at all. If I try to mount them (the partitions)
manually, I also cannot do it. They are plain ext3 partitions on a 250Gb
ATA hdd no RAID no LVM(2) at all. I am kind of lost as all the info I
can find on the net refers to RAID or LVM(2).....
if anyone can point me into the right direction....
One thing the hard drive seems to be fine as is detected in the BIOS,
and when I mount it thru an USB external hdd case as sda it works fine
this are the errors:
