Hello, just upgraded from mandriva 2010.0 to mageia 2 (it wasn't easy) and I'm already "loving" systemd (not!). At first it wouldn't boot and I took a while to find that the cause was that it couldn't mount ntfs partitions. For the time being I just commented out of fstab, but I'd like for them to be mounted at boot. Apparently it's because fuse hasn't started, but I cannot really tell. Any idea?
Upgrading directly from 2010.0 to Mageia 2 is not recommended, as there were some updates in Mageia 1 specifically to make upgrading to Mageia 2 work. For any file system where you want the boot to continue, instead of dropping to a shell, add the nofail option in /etc/fstab. As to ntfs not mounting, make sure the following packages are installed ... ntfs-3g fuse libfuse2 Confirm you can then mount the ntfs partition. Once you're able to mount it in a regular running session, as root run "dracut -f", to update the initrd file. Regards, Dave Hodgins
