At what "appears" to be random intervals (sometimes twice in a short time and sometimes several days apart) many of my partitions "disappear". When I check, I see that they are not mounted. Running mount -a gets everything back to normal.
Here are a few things I've noticed: - partitions in use (like /var /etc /home /usr) are not affected - the partitions that "disappear" are on all 3 physical discs on the machine - I don't see anything in /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog I usually notice the problem in one of two ways: - I try to read a file on one of the missing partitions OR - I have a cron job that runs every 2 minutes and the script sometimes "disappears" so I get output from CRON telling me about the problem. It's almost as if there's some daemon looking for inactive partitions and uounting them, but I've never heard of such a process. -- Shlomo Solomon http://the-solomons.net Sent by KMail (KDE 3.5.4) on LINUX Mandriva 2007 ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
