I am using RHEL 4.0 under vmware & trying to mount Linux partitons in my Cmpact Flash Card but cannot mount. The CF Card contains three partitions of Linux and is recognised by fdisk command. When I give fdisk -l command it shows as follows :

-----------------
Disk /dev/sdb: 129 MB, 129024000 bytes
16 heads, 32 sectors/track, 492 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 512 * 512 = 262144 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 * 1 10 2544 83 Linux
/dev/sdb2 11 118 27648 83 Linux
/dev/sdb3 119 124 1536 83 Linux

-------------
When I try to mount the partitions by using the command :

mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/cf1

It gives the following error :

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1,
or too many mounted file systems. I have tried umounting 2-3 mounted devices but giving same error.

The CF Card is bootable & contains valid linux partitions.

Please guide me as how to mount the partitions.

Thanks.

Probably, first, you need to run "fsck" on the drives to check for consistency.
