sorry for this elementary question: but using the live cd, can I simple mount like mkdir tmp mount -t jfs /dev/sda5 /tmp
Then the HD is writable???
well, not sure if /tmp is a good mount point (could already be in use), but basically, it should work this way.
I am very confused but this does not work. I took a different machine running 10.04 trinity. It has only a root partion with jfs on it.
So when I boot with my virtual 10.04 Cd and then try to mount via
mount -t jfs /dev/sda5 /tmp2
Or what ever mount complains:
"wrong fs type or bad superblock":
the usual message of mount when something is wrong.
I have also on /dev/sda1 a windows partion with ntfs. This one I can mount. So I am stuck.
There must be something very elementary which I miss, but what?
Thanks
