you was able to mount that partition,
is it still mountable on other system, for example, not using lfs live cd,

* I am using the LFS Live CD as my host system

* I created three partitions with parted: hda1, hda2 and swap.

* My partition table looks like:

Disk geometry for /dev/hda: 0kB - 41GB
Disk label type: bsd
Number  Start   End     Size    File system  Flags
1       1kB     18GB    18GB    ext2
2       18GB    36GB    18GB    ext2
3       36GB    41GB    4981MB  linux-swap


* I was able to mount the partitions

* The disk started going into this cycle where I could hear it reading
for a short second, then stopping, then reading, then stopping. It
seemed to my system had hung. It took a long time for it to even
recognze that I had moved the mouse. It wouldn't recognize keyboard
input.

* I powered down while the system was still up

* I rebooted

* When I type:

mount -t ext2 /dev/hda1 /mnt/lfs

I get the following error:

mount: special device /dev/hda1 does not exist

* I researched fstab and added the lines for hda1 and 2. My fstab
looks as follows:

# Begin /etc/fstab

# filesystem mount-point  fs-type  options        dump  fsck-order
unionfs       /           unionfs  defaults        0       0
proc          /proc       proc     defaults        0       0
sysfs         /sys        sysfs    defaults        0       0
devpts        /dev/pts    devpts   gid=4,mode=620  0       0
# tmpfs       /dev/shm    tmpfs    defaults        0       0

# my partitions

/dev/hda1     /mnt/lfs/   ext2     defaults        0       0
/dev/hda2     /mnt/backup/ ext2    defaults        0       0

# End /etc/fstab

* I still get the same error when I try to mount hda1.

I have spent a long time researching this, but haven't found anything
that addresses this problem. (there's plenty on fstab, but I thought I
edited it correctly).  I am fairly new to LFS - does anyone have any
suggestions?
