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
