When I mounted /windows/D I found that /dev/sda2 had been mounted, because partitioner had written the wrong entry to fstab. It had written "-part2" instead of "-part3" (see below, the line is commented out and I changed the mapping to /windows/C. My /etc/fstab: # /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST9750423AS_5WS0M43Q-part2 /windows/C ntfs-3g users,gid=users,fmask=133,dmask=022,locale=en_GB.UTF-8 0 0 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST9750423AS_5WS0M43Q-part3 /windows/D ntfs-3g users,gid=users,fmask=133,dmask=022,locale=en_GB.UTF-8 0 0 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST9750423AS_5WS0M43Q-part8 /windows/E vfat users,gid=users,umask=0002,utf8=true 0 0 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. This is not a big bug - I was able to fix things by editing /etc/fstab - but it might offend inexperienced users. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
