I have a new computer I installed Linux on Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES
release 4 (Nahant), it has one of those all-in-one card readers on it. I
have made mountpoints as root as follows for my thumb, Compact flash and
secure digital drive.
mkdir /mnt/thumb
mkdir /mnt/cf
mkdir /mnt/sd
Now when I tried to mount the Thumb (USB) drive I got an error # mount
/dev/sda2 /mnt/thumb
mount: /dev/sda2 already mounted or /mnt/thumb busy.
So what have I done wrong? I'm thinking sda2 is wrong, but don't know why?
df -h shows the following
[root localhost mnt]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
183G 2.9G 171G 2% /
/dev/sda1 99M 19M 76M 20% /boot
none 247M 0 247M 0% /dev/shm
[root localhost mnt]#
Thanks.
Hi, smertz:
If /dev/sda* is already being used, try /dev/sdb*.
HTH, Chuck
