Public bug reported: When I upgraded from Feisty to Gutsy, I noticed that my NTFS partition was no longer being mounted at startup. The NTFS partition is on a striped array using DMRAID, along with several ext3 partitions (all of which mounted ok). The NTFS partition (/dev/mapper/nvidia_effeccbe1) is listed in my fstab (see attached) using the UUID (B080F3DA80F3A54E). This worked okay in Feisty.
If I remove the UUID entry for this partition and use '/dev/mapper/nvidia_effeccbe1' instead, the partition mounts fine. The output of blkid gives: /dev/mapper/nvidia_effeccbe7: TYPE="swap" UUID="92995c4b-7205-47a5-96a4-3da870607792" /dev/mapper/nvidia_effeccbe6: LABEL="root" UUID="4a810ba8-bfc5-4a54-b9f3-e7588805b872" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" /dev/mapper/nvidia_effeccbe5: LABEL="tmp" UUID="4d2dbdd4-b441-4c3b-b3b1-63598b5091f4" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" /dev/mapper/nvidia_effeccbe3: LABEL="boot" UUID="450a14e7-7e17-41e1-9c0a-5c576aaade73" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" /dev/mapper/nvidia_effeccbe1: TYPE="ntfs" UUID="B080F3DA80F3A54E" /dev/mapper/nvidia_effeccbe9: UUID="dfa88fa9-e0e7-4a3f-bc76-08c2e087d431" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" /dev/mapper/nvidia_effeccbe8: LABEL="var" UUID="7568e5ba-bc0a-4773-98dd-051aabdd9430" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" /dev/sdb1: LABEL="home" UUID="7cfd1f74-70d1-412e-8dfd-1c1ed4dd9526" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" This clearly shows that the UUID that I am using in my fstab is correct. However, if I do a ls -l on /dev/disk/by-uuid, I get the following results: total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 2007-10-20 11:56 450a14e7-7e17-41e1-9c0a-5c576aaade73 -> ../../mapper/nvidia_effeccbe3 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 2007-10-20 11:56 4a810ba8-bfc5-4a54-b9f3-e7588805b872 -> ../../mapper/nvidia_effeccbe6 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 2007-10-20 11:56 4d2dbdd4-b441-4c3b-b3b1-63598b5091f4 -> ../../mapper/nvidia_effeccbe5 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 2007-10-20 11:56 7568e5ba-bc0a-4773-98dd-051aabdd9430 -> ../../mapper/nvidia_effeccbe8 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2007-10-20 11:56 7cfd1f74-70d1-412e-8dfd-1c1ed4dd9526 -> ../../sdb1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 2007-10-20 11:56 92995c4b-7205-47a5-96a4-3da870607792 -> ../../mapper/nvidia_effeccbe7 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2007-10-20 11:56 B080F3DA80F3A54E -> ../../sda1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 2007-10-20 11:56 dfa88fa9-e0e7-4a3f-bc76-08c2e087d431 -> ../../mapper/nvidia_effeccbe9 This shows that the UUID I am using in my fstab is linked to the wrong device. It is in-fact linked to a 'partition' on one of the disks which make up the striped array, which is different to the output of blkid. Note, I am not sure which package to file this bug against. I've filed it against dmraid for now, but please change as appropriate. ** Affects: dmraid (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- UUID's not correctly allocated for DMRAID devices in Gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/154834 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
