I am not sure if I am posting in the right section?

When using my pendrive i dont have acces to my local hard drive.
It is not detected at boot up.

If some1 have an idea please tell me.

Sorry, I don't have the answer, I just want to know how to do this too, please.

What do you mean? That they do not appear in the mount tool?
That they can't be mounted?

More information please..

hmm, yet another embedded ?

Posted by roberts on Sep. 28 2007,16:41

Yup, could be embedded (Qemu) or
need to know about *nix permissions or
could have a sata drive and need to use 2.1b or 4.0 with sata boot option.

Good afternoon, I've the same problem on my ACER1692 laptop, and it doesn't concern an embedded DSL, nor a sata drive (it's IDE).
During the boot, the primary HD of the laptop is not recognized, and it will not be part of the mountable devices once booted DSL.
Maybe a permissions problem?
Thank you for any suggestions.

Post the generated fstab. Also post the output of

sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda

Hi,

this is the fstab>

/proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/sys /sys sysfs noauto 0 0
/dev/pts /dev/pts devpts mode=0622 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/auto/floppy auto user,noauto,exec,umask=000 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/auto/cdrom auto user,noauto,exec,ro 0 0
# Added by KNOPPIX
/dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 vfat noauto,users,exec,umask=000,uid=1001,gid=50 0 0
# Added by KNOPPIX
/dev/hda /mnt/hda auto noauto,users,exec 0 0

The "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda" does not present any output......

Thank you for your help!!

Should this help, the Dmesg output mentions I/O errors on various sectors of hda....

Posted by curaga on Oct. 13 2007,09:18

Maybe the hd is breaking?
Or just gotten corrupted, so making new partitions and formatting them would do?

In either case, post the IO errors..

Posted by valiant on Oct. 13 2007,19:59

Well....the HD should be fine (at least I hope...), it works well under Windows, and is recognized by many other USB booted Linux distros.
In any way, all the diagnostics I used under Win (HDtach, HDtune, Everest..) didn't report any misbehaviour...

These are the errors (sorry, it's a bit long...and definitely boring):

By the way, I have no problem in accessing my HD from the LiveCD of both 3.4.4. and 4.0 RC5.

Only the USB boot gives me that problem.

Then md5sum check the installed files on the usb versus the cdrom.

Ok, but actually I installed on the USB from within the cdrom boot...

The only time I've seen end_request errors were with a slow cd drive..

Doesn't help, I know
