Hello,
I just went back to 2.4.9-ac18 from 2.4.10 (i386), and then
for the first time migrated all my ext2 partitions to ext3. I
did this over a series of reboots, as I confirmed that indeed
things continued to work. The last step I took was to convert
/.
I have set up /etc/fstab to mount my 'ext3' partitions with
'auto', I suppose thinking this will make it easier to roll back
if I choose to at some point. This worked fine for all mounts
but the must recent, '/'.
My system has booted fine, but '/' no longer shows up in 'df
-h'. More importantly, 'mount' shows '/' mounted as type
'auto', not 'ext3'. What have I done wrong?
A few lines from /etc/fstab:
/dev/hda1 / auto defaults
1 1
/dev/hda5 /home auto defaults
1 2
/dev/hda10 /usr auto defaults
1 2
/dev/hda6 /usr/local auto defaults
1 2
/dev/hda8 /var auto defaults
1 2
/dev/hda9 /var/tmp auto defaults
1 2
none /proc proc defaults
0 0
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620
0 0
tmpfs /tmp tmpfs size=128m
0 0
/dev/hda7 swap swap defaults
0 0
The output from mount:
/dev/hda1 on / type auto (rw)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
/dev/hda5 on /home type ext3 (rw)
/dev/hda10 on /usr type ext3 (rw)
/dev/hda6 on /usr/local type ext3 (rw)
/dev/hda8 on /var type ext3 (rw)
/dev/hda9 on /var/tmp type ext3 (rw)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,size=128m)
The output from df -h:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda5 20G 19G 1.0G 95% /home
/dev/hda10 3.2G 2.5G 549M 83% /usr
