well
you could simple commet this out and place your own mount option

well here is how this works...

your first hdd is hda, teh second hdb and so on....
the partitions on the harddrives are labeld from 1 over 2 to whatever....

so simple you could try as root....

mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt
and see what is in there...
tehn
mount /dev/hdb2 /mnt
and so on b if it is the second disk....

if you found the right partition... simple place the mount option in your fstab but also with some options
f.e.
/dev/hdb1       /hdd2           vfat    users,gid=users,umask=0002 0    0

so here it mounts the first partion of the 2nd disk to the folder /hdd2 so that users can write to it...

hope it helps

When I write mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt:
mount: /dev/hdb1 is already mounted o /mnt/hdb1 is occupied
And with mount /dev/hdb2 /mnt:
mount: special device /dev/hdb2 does not exist

Well I found something new:
First, I put the temp folder in a ext3 HD, and I paste some files to download, then I copy all the files in temp of the ext3 HD to temp dir on the FAT32 HD, then I run aMule, change the temp folder to the folder of theFAT32 HD and I restart emule but then!!!! the temp of the FAT32 HD that was full of .part and .part.met, now only has .part archives so I can see no one downloads in transfer window
Will it be a bug or something so?

Try doing the same but instead of opening aMule to change directory, edit ~/.eMule and change "TempDir=..." to he path where you have moved the Temp dir. Then start aMule and report here results ;-)

problem with that could be when you create partitions in windows it is not really in order...
so first partition might be 1 second is most often nr 5.....(at  least here )
just take every nr 1-9 till you found all your partitions.... ( you probably know how many they are)

to avoid the first problem un mount all partitions from the harddrive you are working on...
simple
umount /path_where_it_is_mounted

I don't understand what you're trying for me to do Confused

[stefanero]

well what I was trying you to do is to find the right hdd partition...

so first mount it as root and figure out what hdd it is

and which nr it has and add this to teh fstab and get rid of the once you don't need anymore....

so first thing is to unmount everything... and then mount everything back to find out what is the right partition

sorry no other way to explain it my english is not "that" great

Ok, after many many hourse of proofs, I formated my HD to ext3 and run amule...but it told me the same than when I had fat32  :O. I have tried with 2.0.0rc3 and 1.2.6. I think i'm going to become crazy

So this not seems to be relied on the type of fs in your HDD, but, as I think reading your thread, to your local configuration with fstab.

First, the team pointed out the fact that you had a space in the path to your folder: this could typicaly create some errors like you have.

Then, It seems that you fstab is not that beautifull.
You say that it has been modified when you formated, but was it by itself? So what distribution do you use?

I think a "man fstab" would the first step to solve your pb!

[Aenarion]

Well everything is solved. It was a permission problem
Thank you all for everything

[stefanero]

hehe

hurray

Someone please remind me which permissions i should have on a vfat partition, so aMule-rc5 stop to complain ?

Show thoses warning / error messages :

Code: [Select]

info: Could not create backup of '/home/koz/p2p/Temp/002.part.met'
15:34:52: Impossible de définir les permissions pour le fichier '/home/koz/p2p/Temp/015.part.met.backup' (erreur 1 : Operation not permitted)
/Temp is the directory for temp ed2k files. And i (user) am part of the group 'filemanagement' with rwx rights on every directories & files in there :

Code: [Select]

drwxrwxr-x   3 root filemanagement     32768 sep  5 15:36 Temp/
-rwxrwxr-x  1 root filemanagement 112350497 sep  5 15:35 015.part*
-rwxrwxr-x  1 root filemanagement       474 sep  5 15:35 015.part.met*
-rwxrwxr-x  1 root filemanagement       474 sep  5 15:35 015.part.met.bak*
After reading deltaHF answer to a Brazilian guy, i've unmounted that partition, then added "quiet" to /etc/fstab, then mounted the partition an d restarted aMule.
Still show the *same* errors messages

something like:
/dev/hda7 /windows/D vfat users,gid=users,umask=0002,iocharset=iso8859-1,code=437 ,quiet 0 0
mount it new and it w'll work

Thanks you for some "lightening"

here is my /etc/fstab for that partition :

Code: [Select]

/dev/hda7 /mnt/p2p vfat umask=002,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850,gid=500,quiet 0 0

[stefanero]

hello

question: is your home partion on a vfat?
because it complaines it cant create the backup on /home/koz/p2p/Temp/015.part.met.backup....

Bon giorno (it?, de?) Stefanero,

no no this is symlik :

/home/koz/  : ext2

/home/koz/p2p  -> /mnt/p2p : vfat

I just changed "/home/koz/p2p" to /mnt/p2p" in aMule prefs.
As for now (1') it did not complain any more ...

maybe i shouldn't have symlinked ...

[stefanero]

right...
when amule notices its a fat partition it does not complain but while you were using your symlik it complains....

good to know its working now

see ya
stefanero
