[SOLVED] Fedora 14: unable to mount filesystem

JayJayKing · 11-16-2010, 10:11 AM

Hi,

I'm trying to do a fresh Fedora 14 install from usb live stick. On installation got to partition program and since I want my old /home partition I pointed the partitions as they're supposed to be and apart from /home marked all partitions to be formatted to ext4. After the format or in the end of it came up a prompt I couldn't past. The following link shows a pic of that prompt:

What should I do to complete the install?

I have partitions:
/
/home
/boot
/swap

Solution:
Burned the image on CD and installed from it.

Hi!
Maybe I can help; please boot from your Fedora14 an try to start

Code:

gparted

, if it is not installed, it's easy to install within minutes. There you can see (and modify) your partitions.
You could run

Code:

parted -l print

and post the output here (using the symbol # and copying between the two pairs of brackets).

Well... I burned the image on CD and did a complete installation that way. Thank you anyway!
