Try mount (with no arguments) to see what mtab says is mounted. It looks like your / partition (hda5) is still pretty stuffed up - I'd try to delete some stuff out of there. Also, are you sure you mounted something on /mnt/mikan, or did you copy /home there from another disk? -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | The perversity of nature is nowhere | | steve@lobefin.net | better demonstrated by the fact that, | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | when exposed to the same atmosphere, | | | bread becomes hard while crackers | | | become soft. | --------------------------------------------------------------------------
