Problem #2 : this is the way / is mounted in rescue mode. root can't override a read-only fs. But he can : # mount -o remount,rw / and edit /etc/fstab
Problem #1 : Please have a look in your dmesg just after having launch a "mount /localdisc01" command, and upload here the last lines. Watch on the nfs server(s) the /var/log/messages file if nfsd logs some attempts to connect. If there are messages, please upload this stream: grep nfsd /var/log/messages | tail It could be a network/firewall/nfsd problem too. ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: New => Incomplete -- Disc mounting problems https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/473860 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
