I have a spare machine that I am trying to set up for backups using an ethernet net.
One partition (a bo system) has root mounted on /dev/hda3. If I login to this machine, and try to mount another partition, using: sudo mount /dev/hda4 or sudo mount /dev/rex I get the response mount: /dev/hda4 already mounted or /rex busy. However, df, mount and /mtab all show that /dev/hda4 is not mounted. The /etc/fstab file inclides this line: /dev/hda4 /rex ext2 defaults,noauto 0 2 Any ideas for where to look for the problem?
