error mounting ext3 filesystem... mount: /dev/hdd1: can't read superblock
I get an error when I try to mount the ext3 partition on my second hard drive. It used to be reiserfs, but reiser gave me big problems and I switched back to ext3.
I deleted reiser and created ext3 with parted... that's when it quit mounting on me. mount -t ext3 /dev/hdd1 /mnt/storage mount: /dev/hdd1: can't read superblock I'm using Slackware 9.1 and I have Knoppix Linux Live CD 3.3 By the way... Knoppix can mount the partition without any problems. |
possible solutions:
- /dev/hdd1 might be the wrong device (second HDD usually is /dev/hdb - primary slave) ? - does your kernel contain ext3 support ? |
/dev/hdd1 is the correct device. i'm sure of that.
the filesystem the kernel is running on is ext3 and it was working before. |
ext2/3 are defaulted in kernel...
however u say knoppix can mount it, id bet its kernel/module problem. how about ur fstab? does it look clean? |
here is my fstab:
/dev/hdc3 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/hdc2 / ext3 defaults 1 1 /dev/hdc1 /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/hdd1 /mnt/storage ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,ro 0 0 /dev/hdb /mnt/cdrom1 iso9660 noauto,owner,ro 0 0 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 I don't know what the devpts or proc are there for. My cd burner is /dev/hdb... that works fine. /dev/hdd1 is the device that won't mount. I've had this configuration work before... it's just not working now. I can't figure it out. |
I have a very similar problem with pclinuxos but i'm a linux noob and don't really know where to start
