fdisk ??? Re: [newbie] partition not mounted at boot.
In the following HOWTO: http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Partition-Rescue/x67.html I see that the result of fdisk gives a listing of the following format: Disk /dev/hdb: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 523 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdb1 1 153 1228941 83 Linux /dev/hdb2 154 166 104422+ 82 Linux swap /dev/hdb3 * 167 291 1004062+ 83 Linux /dev/hdb4 295 523 1839442+ 5 Extended /dev/hdb5 295 422 1028128+ 83 Linux /dev/hdb6 423 523 811251 6 FAT16 Mine however looks much stranger: #fdisk -l Disk /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 3649 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes Device BootStart EndBlocks Id System /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 * 1 216 1734988+ b Win95 FAT32 /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part2 217 292610470 83 Linux /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part3 293 2846 20515005 5 Extended /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part4 2202 2583 3068415 83 Linux /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part5 293 342401593+ 82 Linux swap /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part6 343 1106 6136798+ 83 Linux /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part7 ?224061112815 1253901899 29 Unknown I can't use Linux now. Do you know where does the problem come from and how I could solve it??? I just stumbled on this: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Mandrake-Linux/message/1445 for my hard drive (hda), I have the following symlinks: /dev/hda --- /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc /dev/hda1 --- /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /dev/hda2 --- /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part2 and so on. but i don't know if it is relevant at all... And also following a link from google, I find this quote: http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/SGI/xfs/Release-1.0/RH7.1-SGI-XFS-1.0/RedHat/RP MS/devfsd-1.3.11-sgi.i386.html (DiskDrake won't like /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 instead of /dev/hda1 ...) I used diskdrake to add one partition and my problems started (not immediately) after that... The rest of the page doens't give anything helpful though... I am puzzleder and puzzleder. thanks, Anguo Below is the background information from my previous posts. Linux doesn't mount /home and other important partitions at boot. It does mount / and /usr though... It does mount win98 c:/ but not d:/ win98 can't read d:/ anymore. There seems to be a problem with my partition table... I am still investigating how I can solve the problem. I found the partition rescue mini howto which may or may not be relevant in my case. I'll look more for the answer but if anyone knows where the problem is and could give me some pointers, I'd be grateful.
