(Solved) Mounting errors?

[joemartin]

Hello,

I had a Windoze 7 and LM 14 dual boot until yesterday when I used Gparted to delete Windoze 7 partition and then I expanded Nadia's to the entire drive.

Now I receive errors like the enclosed image. Cam someone please help? Hoping I do not have to reinstall...

Do you have a floppy drive in your computer? Those uses disks like these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Flopp ... 009_G1.jpg.

Please open the Terminal application from your menu, and type the following command followed by enter key. Copy the output here, see the Terminal's Edit menu for copying text from it.

Code: Select all

cat /etc/fstab

No floppy on pc xenopeek.

it happens when usb or disc is inserted. Output below.

user@user~ $ cat /etc/fstab
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).

Looks like you are running MATE, and have somehow ended up with support for floppy drive in your fstab file. So press Alt+F2 or open a terminal, and run the command:

Code: Select all

gksudo pluma /etc/fstab

This opens the fstab file in the editor. Remove that last line:

Code: Select all

/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0

Then save and close the file, and after reboot you should not have this problem again I think.

Unfortunately did not work....

You still get the floopy drive error? Check the /etc/fstab file again, is the line really gone or somehow reappeared?

Is there a fix for this??? Thanks again for the knowledge.
