Uhm... 2 Drive Strangeness? - 10/04/2003 12:45

Okay, I put a second drive into my 'backup' empeg, and it all went according to plan, save for a few differences with the builder image file.

Once finished, I sync'd it up with my PC's music collection fine, no issue.

However, now I'm trying to upload one sone (yeah, just one), and Emplode is getting stuck on the "Checking Disk Intregity".
In the serial output, I got:

Adding Swap: 16596k swap-space (priority -1)
e2fsck 1.19, 13-Jul-2000 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
ext2fs_check_if_mount: No such file or directory while determining whether /dev/
hda4 is mounted.
e2fsck 1.19, 13-Jul-2000 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
ext2fs_check_if_mount: No such file or directory while determining whether /dev/
hdc4 is mounted.

And it sits there. I can't tell if it's doing anything or not (the HS icon *IS* on on the player)..
But, what the heck is /dev/hdc4?? The drive I put in was mounted and identified as /dev/hdb. Why can't it check /dev/hda4?

Hmph.

Me.

Emplode is getting stuck on the "Checking Disk Intregity".
How big was that second drive? Take a look here.

Oh, and i think the messages related to hd(x)4 are normal and not to be worried about.

edit: I could be wrong about those messages, the FAQ says hda4 is supposed to be there...

Can you connect to the empeg and run mount? Also can you do a log of the bootup?
Worst case would be that you've somehow corrupted the music partition.

No such file or directory is probably /etc/mtab, which won't be created because / is mounted ro.

Hmm.. Thanks, everyone for the info..
Turns out it wasn't really stuck, just taking a while.

I still get the "/etc/mtab" missing error, but yeah, i'm guessing that's because of the ro drives..

Thanks!
