Thanks Les and Andy,

I suppose I can ignore this type recognition if I can solve my real problem, which lead me to this inquiry.

My real problem is that I would like to boot off of clonezilla and proceed to mount the root filesystem (of the box being cloned) to learn stuff from /etc such as IP of the box and such. This is to automate the cloneing to an NFS location in a proper folder, for ease of restore and such.

Currently when I clonezilla fdisk reports my root filesystem type to be 83. When I try to mount this like

mount -t ext3  /dev/sda2 /mnt

I get the following error message
VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev sda2
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda2 ...
.....and bunch of other suggestions including see dmesg

Any suggestions...
From the message you posted:
===================

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

===================
/dev/sda2 is swap, did you mean you want to mount /dev/sda3 actually?
Or please run:
sudo /sbin/blkid
then post the results.

Steven.

Thanks

    That’s normal. There was a kernel update somewhere in the 2.6
    branch that deprecated the ide driver in favor of scsi emulation.
    I don’t know the exact details off the top of my head.

    Is it actually stopping you from doing something?

    Hi,

    Just installed and tried Clonezilla ver
    clonezilla-live-20100721-lucid.iso and booted my Linux box.

    I have two PATA partitions and a few more SCSI partitions. When I
    run fdisk from my (native) linux box, I see

    [r...@meditest]# fdisk -l

    Disk /dev/hda: 1048 MB, 1048190976 bytes
    32 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1015 cylinders

    /dev/sda11          12555       30401   143356027   83  Linux

    But when I boot off of clonezilla, and run fdisk -l, I get
    (bunch of stuff skipped)
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 1 131 nnnn 83 Linux /dev/sda2 132 1015 nnnnn 83 Linux // nnnn is ok...just lazy
    ...skipping stuff....
    /dev/sdb1
    /dev/sdb2

    Basically, Clonezilla is seeing both my flash disk and sata disk
    as scsi disks?
    Any ideas

    Thanks
