Hi All,
I'm having some fun with mounting a spare drive, it just won't mount on startup.
I have included the fstab at the end, hda2 is the problem partition.
After startup, the drive is not mounted.
If, after startup, i invoke :
mount -a
thereafter the partition is mounted, and works fine !!
I have had a poke around the logs and so on but nothing obvious has
being reported.
Any pointers on where to look, how otherwise to proceed in debugging
this, etc, would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
