[SOLVED] My /home and /boot partition show on my desktop; not mounted

I'm guessing these two fie systems aren't mounted and the computer is seeing them as separate volumes?
So I guess I made a mistake during the install. This kind of explains a few things because when updating my kernel GRUB wasn't being updated as if the /boot partition wasn't mounted. I had to completely reinstall GRUB to have it point to the right kernel.
Is there a way to fix this and get these mounted how they need to be? Probably something with my fstab file?
When I installed I mounted my root, created /mnt/boot and /mnt/home, then mounted those to their own partitions that I had created.
I generated my fstab and checked it, and everything looked fine. I just don't know why everything else is just fine, but /boot and /home aren't mounted?
My partition scheme is GPT and looks like
/dev/sda1 -- bios boot
/dev/sda2 -- /boot
/dev/sda3 -- /
/dev/sda4 -- /swap
/dev/sda5 -- /home
I used UUIDs if that makes any difference.
Thanks.

All right. I did what bstaletic said, and performed option 3 of his suggestions. My fstab file is restored but now when I start lightdm I get to my login screen, login, and have a black screen with just a cursor. All I did was run the install media, mount each partition (starting with root first). Then I turned my swap on.
After that, I ran
genfstab -U -p /mnt > fstab
I checked the fstab file, it looked like this
# /dev/sda3
UUID=c2d39ee2-e1c4-4989-9937-91fad2951d67 / ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 1
# /dev/sda2
UUID=9cd92417-c4c0-40c7-9de3-3b65b896e36b /boot ext2 rw,relatime 0 2
# /dev/sda5
UUID=db8633d3f-0cb2-49dc-9792-356ad37ace58 /home ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 2
# /dev/sda4
UUID=00d4f1cd-cc6c-4dd3-B4c7-67da333205ea none swap defaults 0 0
So I unmouted everything and turned swap off and went back into my system. The fstab file matched the output above. I started lightdm so i could get into xfce to see if the volumes were no longer on my desktop. However, now I get a black screen with a cursor. I let it sit for a while, but I ended up going into a tty and rebooting. Same issue. Black screen and cursor. I can see and login to lightdm just fine, but not my xfce DE.
I did try reinstalling lightDM and xfce4 and xfce4-goodies. Not xorg though. I'll try reinstallign it and see what that does.

Boot partition showing up on desktop

After restoring OSX and Linux to my new replacement Powerbook hard drive, there's a "Boot OSX" partition showing up on my desktop, the contents of which are:

What do I need to do to stop it showing up on my desktop? It never did before, with the same combo of OSX+Ubuntu installed.

Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
You might need to redo the View settings after an update.

Separating home and boot into separate partitions after installation

Hi,
is it possible to separate home and boot folders into different partitions for an already complete arch installation without re-installing? And if so, is it a good idea?
I also would like to upgrade from ext2 file system to ext4. It would be great though if I could keep my current arch-linux installation.
I know that the file system upgrade is possible (although not without risk), but I'm not sure about the partitioning.
I guess creating new partition, mounting it with fstab and simply copying the content of boot folder from my root partition would not be sufficient, but I could be wrong.
I know I can't run pacstrap script, because it would delete my current folders (except home). So is there other way?
Thanks for help.

2Head_on_a_Stick: I don't know why, but it didn't work. Is the partition supposed to have the folder boot in it or just the files inside the boot folder? Nevertheless I tried both and each failed. I suppose I made a mistake in fstab file.
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
UUID=CBB6-24F2 /boot vfat rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro 0 2
I got this from https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fstab and yes I did change the UUID accordingly. The partition was formated to fat32.
I'll try the home partition now. Hope it will go better.

[SOLVED] Moving boot, home and var partition post-install

I've installed my whole Arch on a single 10GB partition because of low disk space. But now that I've gained a lot of disk space, I want to move /boot, /home and /var to separate partitions.
I'm going to use live CD, so everything will be unmounted.
home and var:
I assume it's just a matter of moving files and changing fstab.
boot:
I assume, I'll have to move all files to new partition and re-install grub/burg.
Is there anything more to it?
Last edited by Camus (2011-12-01 11:37:32)

You need to edit your fstab file, copy files to the new partitions (check for permissions!), and restore grub(2), see wiki.
If you do not have custimized Arch, you could do a reinstall, but I'm not responsible for that tip. So be sure to have a backup or something like that.

[SOLVED]Incorrect mountpoint for /home and /boot

Hello Archers,
I'm new to Arch, if you find my question is so dummy, let me know
I have manually setup the partition like this:
1. sdb1 NTFS with boot flag toggle, primary (My existing Windows XP)
2. sdb2 with boot flag toggle, primary (will be used as /boot), type 83
3. sdb5 logical (will be used as swap), type 82
4. sdb6 logical (will be used as /), type 83
5. sdb7 logical (will be used as /home), type 83
6. sdb8 logical NTFS
I have a small problem when installing Arch, it's about setting up filesystem and mountpoint.
The installer asked me to select the swap, I chose sdb5, for / I chose sdb6, and it asked me to select additional partition to be mounted under new root, I chose sdb5 with the mount point /boot, sdb7 for /home. The installer show a summary of the filesystem and mountpoint before it makes changes to the hdd, everything is correct. But when it makes changes to my hdd, it said that it make a mountpoint at /mnt/boot and /mnt/home.:rolleyes:. It should make mountpoints at /boot and /home respectively. Why does it add a prefix /mnt to my custom mountpoint?
It seems to be a bug in the installer.
Any help are appreciated.
Thanks
Tinh

fumbles wrote:Because you are still running Arch from the CD and not the one you just installed on your computer.
If so, the message generated by the installer is confusing, it need to be fixed to save some posts like this on the forum:D
I'm not at that computer right now, so I cannot verify this. I will verify this problem in the evening and report back.
Thanks for a quick reply.

Screwed up MBR and boot partition, can't fix it [SOLVED]

Hi,
I have been defeated. Been trying to fix my computer the whole day and know I'm lost.
It's a long story, but my whole system got screwed when I tried installing windows on top of arch (I didn't get it to install, but I don't care anymore).
I was able to install GRUB2, I tried configuring it with grub.cfg , but when trying to boot it says it's missing kernel, boot partition has linux2.6, and I was using linux 3, I'm not really sure how to get the kernel I was using, should it be in my root partition? .
I'd like to get my system as it was before, I have root , var and home partitions and not sure how.
Thanks

Thanks for your reply.
I was using Arch, I last updated a few days ago.
The kernel that's on the boot partition is from a debian live cd I had laying around.
It is not possible I have more than one boot partition. I have 1 hard drive, but plenty of free space.
Windows wanted to use the start of my disk, so I used gparted to move 20 gb free space at the beginning. Creating a partition in the beginning also caused all partitions numbers to move up (sda2->sda3), when I gave up on windows, I tried moving everything forward like it was before, but it didn't work. Then I remembered that when installing grub, installers check for other mount points, but that didn't work, and instead overwrote my boot partition. So know I've got a temporary debian system installed(sda9) and a boot partition that won't boot Arch.
This is my fdisk output: sda5 is arch sd6 var and sd7 home

(SOMEWHAT SOLVED) grub2 finds and boots windows 7 but NOT arch

I installed arch on a new system. I have 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate. I installed arch skipped bootloader, chrooted into system and installed grub2 and installed. My system is btrfs. I do not have a seperate swap or home partition. OS-prober is installed. I have another system with btrfs and grub2 and all works fine. When I run grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg I get this
Keyboard is not working properly on other computer so I cannot insert code brackets.
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-linux
Found initrd image: /boot/initramfs-linux.img
No volume groups found (what does this mean)
Found Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/sda1
done
Again boot and root partitions are btrfs. Grub2 is the bootloader and it does support btrfs at least the version in the repos a month ago did. I have feeling this might be the problem but I do not know why. Windows 7 boots successfully by the way. No Arch Linux
Edit: Backed up boot partition. Made the partition ext4 and cp'd it all back and still no luck. I converted it because ran the grub-mkconfig again and I got everything above but also I got an unknown filesystem error. Converting it back to btrfs...
Edit 2: I am writing this from within windows but grub2 now shows Arch in the the menu. (no gui on this install yet) After what feels like 100 grub-installs and grub-mkconfigs it is all working. I still have two questions. For like half a second I see a file not found and I think it is a *.mod in /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc directory. (i have good eyes). What could this be? Secondly, what does no volume groups mean? Marking this somewhat solved.
Last edited by quasifilmie (2012-03-30 23:59:43)

I'd just ask checking the grub.cfg file to see if the device id entries for arch in the grub menu are correct.
In my case, I use ubuntu's grub2 and each time I have to update grub for some reason, it wont get the partition right for the arch entry.

[SOLVED] Longwinded beginner - Dual-boot & partition questions

Hello,
I'm interested in installing Arch Linux alongside Windows XP (dual-boot). I have little previous linux experience, although I have rented some servers that have used it in the past, as well as compiling some stuff with it while at University (studying Computer Science). Nevertheless, I am relatively confident that if I can still boot into XP, I will be able to acccustomise myself and like the fact that this distribution seems to be hands-on and leaves a lot up to the user.
I've been reading the Beginner's Guide and the dual boot guide, and I would like to get started, however, I'm not going to go ahead with this until I am certain that I will be left with a system that can still boot into Windows XP. I assume that it'll take me a while to get to grips with Arch, and in the meantime it would be massively inconvenient if I couldn't work/play/etc...
What I already know
Anyway, currently I have a 250GB hard drive that I use for Windows (as well as 3 other hard drives full of stuff). I have partitioned the drive with Windows XP on it with gparted like so:
(in order)
UNALLOCATED 32GB
SDB1 (Windows XP) 50GB
SDB2 (Downloads) 150GB
I hope to use the unallocated space to hold linux (and then have access to my other windows drives in the future, using ntfs-3g), however, I am a little confused over what partitions I 'should' have and how large they should be, considering that I will use the OS to mainly develop, browse the web, listen to music, etc...
I was thinking:
/boot -- ext2 -- 100MB
/ -- ext4 -- 15GB
swap -- -- 1GB
/home -- ext4 -- 12GB
/var -- ReiserFS -- 4GB
Questions
• Is 30GB too little, even though most of my stuff is on other NTFS hard drives?
• How large should / be? I've read that it contains /bin, /dev, /etc and others. How do I know how much space these need? Am I misunderstanding things?
• Is a /var partition unnecessary? How large should it be?
• 10GB for /home, 1GB for swap, 100MB for /boot?
• Do I need a /tmp or /usr? This is a single-user machine, but I don't want it to get messy!
• I was thinking of giving /boot ext2, and /var ReiserFS, and then giving every other partition ext4. That okay?
• Do I need to set these partitions up when installing, or can I set them up in advance with gparted - it might be simpler.
• Due to already having 2 NTFS primary partitions on the hard disk, I presume that some of the above will need to be logical partitions in an extended partition? How is this done?
Once the partitions have been set up, and linux is installed, I presume it's just a matter of completing the rest of Part I of the guide, and then ammending /boot/grub/menu.lst to include 'Windows XP'? At that point I am able to restart Windows XP, and only delve into Arch when I want to continue with the configuration, fixing, and so on...
Sorry for the wall of text, and thanks for your patience. (:

That's the thing, I expect that I'm doing something wrong with the GRUB loader - and I admit my hard disk layout has been quite strange for a long time before installing linux.
Basically, it currently looks like this:
/dev/sda1 ntfs Music 250GB
/dev/sdb3 ext2 /boot 120MB
/dev/dsb4 extended
---- /dev/sdb5 linux-swap 1GB
---- /dev/sdb6 ext4 / 20GB
---- /dev/sdb7 ext4 /home 12GB
/dev/sdb1 ntfs Windows XP 50GB
/dev/sdb2 ntfs Downloads 150GB
/dev/sdc1 ntfs TV & Movies 950GB
• This list is in order that the entries appear on the hard disk, hence /boot is in the first 1024 cylinders of the hard disk, but as you can see the sdb numbers are actually in the chronological order that I created them.
• I used an extended partition with logical partitions inside since I had read that there was an issue with more than 4 partitions in a hard disk, and I already had 2 NTFS partitions.
• When it asked me to install GRUB to the MBR, I installed it to SDB as opposed to SDBx as it asked me to in the manual. This is the drive that contains /boot!
• I just managed to amend something in the menu.lst, in order that I can boot into Windows XP. Therefore my machine is not totally fucked up any more. (: Unfortunately, what I changed doesn't make sense to me, since I would have expected Windows XP to be on a different hard disk.

Home and personal partition in different places

If there is something that i hate is to have the .config files with my personal files in home.
Is there a way to mount a partition with the home and separated another partition with my files? I readed it in the wiki, but i don't know how to do it.

What do you have in /home then? You can have separate /docs , /data etc.

Upon running Norton Security Suite Diagnostic Report on my HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC on a Windows 7 Home Premium platform, it shows 2 (hidden) devices not working: Antilog32, and AODDriver4.1--Code 24.

On the General tab for device status it says: "This device is not present, is not working properly, or does not have all its drivers installed. (Code 24)" The only option available when I click
on properties of both devices is Start. When I click on Start for Antilog32, this message shows: "The system encountered the following error when it attempted to start the service: The system cannot find the file specified." For AODDriver4.1, the
message when you click Start on Driver tab is: "The system encountered the following error when it attempted to start the service: The system cannot find the path specified." I do not know how to proceed or
how to fix this, or where to find a solution. Please help!

Hello pds48478480,
Do you mean you got the error code 24 in Norton Security Suite Diagnostic Report?
Please share us a screenshot for better analyzation.
Please take a look at the following thread about the AODDriver4.3.
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-performance/the-aoddriver43-service-failed-to-start-due-to-the/cb6b7f03-922b-4b82-972f-e92ef9919964
AODDriver 4.3 is used by AMD OverDrive which tune parameters to help system stability, optimize performance, and control cooling/acoustic characteristics.
With the issue description it seems the driver and the service is either stopped or not working correctly.
Refer to the link below and install the latest version of AMD OverDrive.

I have a dual boot with Ubuntu 10.10 and Windows 7, with linked profiles. When I upgraded to 4.0, my tabs and settings would show in Windows, but not Ubuntu. How do I fix this?

This worked when I first installed and booted in Ubuntu. When I booted in windows, my tabs which were open in Ubuntu opened in Wndows. But, when I booted back into Ubuntu, all of my tabs and pinned tabs were gone, as well as the firefox button. My bookmarks and firefox background remained, but none of my tab settings.

Norton is due to release a patch for both IE9 and Firefox 4 in May. See [http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Internet-Security-Norton/Norton-compatibility-with-IE9-and-FF4/td-p/420020 Norton compatibility with IE9 and FF4]
To revert to 3.6.16, do the following.
* Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.16] and download it to the desktop.
* Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to Mozilla Firefox and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (don't checkmark the box).
* Then reboot and delete the folder called Mozilla Firefox at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
* Finally run the installation file you downloaded.
Actually, Firefox 4 does have a means of identifying untrusted sites. See [[Site Identity Button]]

[SOLVED] My /home and /boot partition show on my desktop; not mounted
