Mount problem SID
Hello
I have a big problem.. to be honest this
problem belongs to a friend of mine, just he can't speak english, and
he is blind, so it's a bit difficult. So..the problem
He have this line in his fstab:
/dev/sdb1 /media/disk2 ext3 auto,users 0 0
This
was working for he .. for few weeks. But after that weeks, the
directory became empty after a reboot. Then, he tried to remount it,
but it says: /dev/sdb is mounted, or the /media/disk folder is busy.
He readed about this problem, and then he used 'dmsetup remove sdb1' and the mount works again. Yes, he can do this workaround, but he is not the only who uses that pc, there are newbies too. He wants to get automount work again.
The OS is an up-to-date Debian Lenny with GNOME desktop environment. He uses ORCA (but I don't think this is a necessary info). The kernel is 2.6.24-1 amd64. If you need other info, then just reply, and I will answer.
ps.: Sorry for the last "half-mail", the Firefox QtGTK gone wild, and it sent itself.. Really sorry. I hope it wont cause a big problem.
Thanks
Regards..
