Problem with knoppix and xp

Rolandox · 04-11-2005, 09:25 AM

Hello,

I begin to use Knoppix two days ago and i writted this command :

mount -o remount,rw /mnt/sda1

result -> now i cant get to into xp

(sda1 is the partition NTFS of xp)

The problem came when i restarted my pc, then i tried to enter in xp and i didnt can. I have tried run the xp with many methods (disquette, xp cd: install, and repair) but nothing .... the xp says that i havent HD.

But the HD is there because from Knoppix i can to mount a partition of the 2 that i have (sda5), that partition sda5 too is NTFS. But now Knoppix cant mount sda1 neither.

Somebody can say me how to solve this problem?

Note1 : Now when i try (from Knoppix) enter in that partition, sda1 (where is xp) i get the next error:

"Could not device.
The reported error was:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock
on dev/sda1,

or too many mounted file system"

Note 2: fstab file

/proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/sys /sys sysfs noauto 0 0

# Added by KNOPPIX
/dev/sda5 /mnt/sda5 ntfs noauto,users,exec,ro,umask=000,uid=knoppix,gid=knoppix 0 0

Pls, i need some help. And sorry for my english.

Ok, i will add more information...

Code:

root@ttyp1[mnt]# file -Ls /dev/sda1
/dev/sda1: x86 boot sector, code offset 0x52, OEM-ID "NTFS    ", sectors/cluster 8, reserved sectors 0, Media descriptor 0xf8, heads 255, hidden sectors 63, dos < 4.0 BootSector (0x80)

Code:

point:when knoppix is closing says me "could not unmount /KNOPPIX - trying /dev/cloop ...."(???????)

Code:

root@ttyp1[mnt]# lsmod

point: i dont think that it is a problem with a module... cause the other partition (sda5) is mounted ok.

Code:

root@ttyp1[mnt]# /sbin/fdisk -l /dev/sda

Disk /dev/sda: 203.9 GB, 203928109056 bytes

/dev/sda5            6945       24792   143364028+   7  HPFS/NTFS

Resume: Problems:

I cant to mount -> sda1
I cant get into xp (in sda1)
And the xp's intallation say me that i havent hard disk.

Some idea???

Here more information:

Code:

root@ttyp1[knoppix]# df -h
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/root             3.4M  936K  2.5M  27% /

root@ttyp1[knoppix]# df -h /dev/sda1
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 3.4M 936K 2.5M 27% /

sda1 mounted on /??? i dont understand.... it have to be /mnt/sda1 ... or no??

And finally i got my partition table.

Quote:

# partition table of /dev/sda
unit: sectors

/dev/sda1 : start= 63, size=111555297, Id= 7, bootable
/dev/sda2 : start=111555360, size=286728120, Id= f
/dev/sda3 : start= 0, size= 0, Id= 0
/dev/sda4 : start= 0, size= 0, Id= 0
/dev/sda5 : start=111555423, size=286728057, Id= 7

sda1 start in sector 63.... it is normal??

OK, i will continue waiting somebody with some idea.
