Whats the recommended way to do these mounts so I can maintain as

Those other areas, are they logical volumes perhaps?  lvms.

No, straight partitions according to gparted.

Hi Gene, I've seen this before, a few times.

It might be useful for posterity to explain what it is in Gene's
extensive posts that you've seen before and which demands such
actions as "described" below.


Thanks David, I thought I was replaying to the first post, I tried again.

If you run #fdisk -l
while in stretch and get error, you need to fix that first, using
gparted move the ailing partition '1'byte, just one digit larger or
smaller, if you have to shrink another partition, do it '2'bytes.
UUID will not change and it will pass fdisk -l no error.  Now in
wheezy see if you can mount.  If not you can disable the checksums.
To disable checksums on an existing filesystem, ensure that the
filesystem will pass fsck. Then turn off metadata_csum via tune2fs.
      #tune2fs -O ^metadata_csum /dev/path/to/disk

The above is for ext4, for repairing partition I use this with force.
          #fsck.ext4 -pvcf /dev/sdxx

Cheers,
David.
