Could be something as simple as the device-mapper having a file handle to the partition already. Don't know if you've fiddled in that area at all though. Just a thought! On Jan 9, 2008 12:42 PM, Sebastian Reitenbach <sebastia@l00-bugdead-prods.de> wrote:
Hi,
I am unable to mount a partition, whenever I try I get the following error message:
mount /export mount: /dev/sdc1 already mounted or /export busy
lsof /export does not list anything, /dev/sdc1 is not listed in /etc/mtab nor in /proc/mounts, so I wonder how the system gets this idea?
There is also nothing showing up in messages or dmesg. I also disabled the nfsserver and rebooted the system, but with the same effect, unable to mount. When I try to fsck the filesystem, I get the followign error: fsck.ext3 /dev/sdc1 e2fsck 1.40.2 (12-Jul-2007) fsck.ext3: Device or resource busy while trying to open /dev/sdc1 Filesystem mounted or opened exclusively by another program?
I'm on opensuse 10.3, x86_64. Any idea whats going on here?
cheers Sebastian
