2.6.4: Mount of /dev/hdb1 impssible
For the benefit of those searching list archives:
I had this problem while upgrading from 2.6.2 to 2.6.6 (and 2.6.7/2.6.8), so the problems seems to have arrision in either 2.6.3 or 2.6.4.
The solution (at least for a few people who have experienced this) is to remove the evms package. Look for the existence of (on my system) /dev/evms/.
Not strictly necessary, but can anyone in the know explain why this broke?

Hi list,
I upgraded from 2.6.4-rc2 to 2.6.4 today, a few minutes before reboot I noticed that my/dev/hdb1hadn't been mounted on last reboot, so I tried to mount it by hand:# mount /work mount: /dev/hdb1 already mounted or /work/ busyThen I thought it'll be fixed when I boot up my 2.6.4, it wasn't, I tried to mount it to various locations (
/mnt//mnt/worketc..) and it didn't want to mount, I'm totally out of ideas with this. according to df it's not mounted, according to mount it's not mounted and according to mtab it's not mounted, so what's going on?It mounts fine on my 2.6.1-mm4 kernel that I use for SCSI burning and fallback if something fails.
