Public bug reported:
When I boot the system, all NTFS partitions are not mounted. I have seen
this on completely different systems:
System #1 (desktop thingy with ASUS P5B-MX mobo)
- Internal IDE Hard drive, three partitions: 1x NTFS, 1x ext3, 1x swap (in that
order)
System #2 (hp laptop)
- Internal SATA hard drive, three partitions: 1x NTFS, 1x ext3, 1x swap (in
that order)
- Removed the IDE drive from system #1, put it into a USB cabinet, connected it
to this system as it was
- Another external hard drive, a SATA drive in another USB cabinet, only 1x
NTFS partition on this one
On ALL three drives above, internal or external, on both systems, the
NTFS partitions that share drive with ext3/swap partitions does not
mount automatically. The NTFS partitions which are *alone* on a single
drive are mounted automatically.
They are mounted without any problem, only when opening the Places menu
and chosing the NTFS partition from the menu. The unmounted partitions
have floppy drive icons, and the hover text "Mount MyNtfsPartition" (if
MyNtfsPartition is the name of the NTFS partition).
I noticed this in 8.04, and still see it on 8.10. Unfortunatelly System
#1 and the IDE hard drive are used for other things since before 8.10
was released.
