I am currently trying to install some packages in Debian 2.0 (using the CD Rom), using dselect. I can select them without any problem, however when I choose the option to actually install them, I get the following error message :
"mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc, or too many mounted file systems. installation script returned error exit status 1. Press RETURN to continue." This was working just fine a couple of days ago, and I am wondering if I have accidentally corrupted one of the system files (or something ?) The following two snippets may be useful in diagnosing this fault. (1) This is the response when I execute the mount command without any parameters : "/dev/hdb2 on / type ext2 (rw,errors=remount-ro) proc on /proc type proc (rw) /dev/hda1 on /mnt/cdrive type msdos (rw) /dev/hdb1 on /mnt/ddrive type msdos (rw)" (2) This is the contents of /etc/fstab (I added in the line for the cdrom, thinking that it might make the difference but it didn't) : "# /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> /dev/hdb2 / ext2 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 /dev/hdb3 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/hdc /cdrom iso9660 ro,noauto 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0" Any help appreciated !!
