[solved] disk drive for /tmp is not ready
Posted: Mon Mar 18, 2013 3:53 pm
Hi, I've noticed a new message just after the grub menu that says
"the disk drive for /tmp is not ready yet or not present
continue to wait S to skip or M for manual recovery."
If I simply wait, the system boots to the normal login screen thought with about a 30 second pause. Funny thing is I HAVE no /tmp in my /etc/fstab So I don't know why grub thinks I have a /tmp or how to solve this.
I've done some searching on it, found associations with installs that went bad, but I've had Maya MATE installed for months.
One suggestion was mount -o remount, rw /tmp, but that brought up a message about how to properly use mount. I corrected it to mount -o remount, ext4 rw /tmp got the same message so don't know further what to do. Anyone know why my system is looking for /tmp? Here's my fstab which hasn't changed recently:
