Ubuntu 8.04 HDD Mount Problem

8 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/ubuntu-8-04-hdd-mount-problem.87818/

Well after install I don't have any problem but after the update my partitions aren't getting mounted automatically.. Also after I click them they get Mounted but as a Disk Not as Hard Drive ;-)

Any Idea about the problem ! Just one point Ubuntu only has added 2 gr8 things Transmision and Brasero.. Loved both of em. but I thin they are not enough to make it good for 3 years.. There are lots of bugs that I seem right away .. Like CCSM installed and no other option under Visual Effects and many more

try,restarting HAL

"sudo /etc/init.d/hald restart"

Did you too do a Wubi installation?

I don't have Windows so how can I do that

Code:

shashwat@shashwat-home:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/hald restart
[sudo] password for shashwat: 
sudo: /etc/init.d/hald: command not found
shashwat@shashwat-home:~$

^^Didn't worked ! Installing Mandriva !

There is no entry for any partition other than your main ext3 ,swap partition in fstab. Try to enter the details manually there.
