|    error after rescue hard drive    |
|    15 Nov 13 17:29:28    |
      From: faeychild@noname.afraid.org              This is self inflicted and I hope to make it succinct and lucid.              I have a second hard drive full of stuff mounted on "/data"              It started to fail with enormously long fsck checks.              So I plugged a new drive into "sdc" and using disk drake I partitioned and       mounted on ''/tmp' then copied all the stuff across.       Because my swap file is also on the second disk I created one on the backup.              All went well until I physically plugged the new drive in the old drive       socket "sdb" . I had suspicions that it wouldn't be that easy.              It still mounts at '/tmp" and I can't change this with drake because the       drive is busy, not sure with what.              boot up is slow because grub waits for "sda3 and sdb2 to appear.              sdb2 does not exist on the new disk              Fixing is beyond my experience. I wont edit fstab without knowing what I am       doing.              fstab below              # Entry for /dev/sda3 :       UUID=d8e2a51f-c9b5-4aef-80cd-c4bf0b4f626c / ext4 acl,relatime 1 1       # Entry for /dev/sdb1 :       UUID=cfa1d59e-c2e3-4bda-b608-dfae5070006e /data ext3 acl,relatime 1 2       /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom auto umask=0,users,iocharset=utf8,noauto,ro,exec 0 0       none /proc proc defaults 0 0       # Entry for /dev/sdc1 :       UUID=0f9247d9-28b0-4fea-9c9f-ea88ce273f0c /tmp ext4 acl,relatime 1 2       # Entry for /dev/sdb2 :       UUID=23ad1d81-c5ea-4f11-b86d-45710295f076 swap swap defaults 0 0       # Entry for /dev/sdc5 :       UUID=c1398fe7-68d0-44c3-8892-7ff941ae6ccf swap swap defaults 0 0              Any help appreciated              faeychild       my signature generator has failed also              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
