Because it is seen as 'improper shutdown or it still being in use', I would suspect that it is in use rather than improper shutdown. If it was a shutdown problem the live cd would probably give you the same message becuase it too would detect the improper shutdown. This leads to the conclusion that the drive must be seen as in use. Something must be trying to mount or access that drive and so stopping it from being mounted. What does your mount command show ? The drive may already be mounted just not where you expect it to be. > Has anyone got any idea why I can see and use the drive connected to > port 1 or 2 on the Highpoint Rocket Raid 1540 SATA , when using the > Feisty Live (DvD) but it will not work on either the Gutsy Live (Cd) > or either Feisty or Gutsy installed on an IDE hard drive? > > Please help me someone as this is causing me sleepless nights and I dont > know enough about linux or Ubuntu yet to try compiling the source HPT374 > driver from Highpoint, yet. > > Nuff respect to all the good work all of you do both here and elsewhere, > in promoting this wonderful (if sometimes frustrating) OS.
