Try doing a manual mount. Knoppix just might not be dectecting the partiton correctly.Originally Posted by Garibaldi
sudo mount -a /dev/hdx /mnt/hdx
replacing x with what it should be. (a1, a2)
I've been using Knoppix for about a month now and it has always been able to recognize my ntsf hda, it has 2 partitions, a 700 MB Fat32 where I have my persistent home and a 145 GB NTSF partition. the FAT32 part is /mnt/hda1. Now all of a sudden Knoppix will not let me access my main 145 GB partition /mnt/hda2. I just want to read files from the hd, not write (I know that's not supported). Any ideas and solutions of how to get my hd accessible again? Here is the message that it gives:
mount: ????????? /dev/discs/disc0/part2 ???????
Please check that the disk is entered correctly.
Thanks.

I experienced this with my 3 cd drives. It was easy to remedy. delete the desktop link to the device, I assume that's how you are trying to access the disk. Then right click->create->device->hard disk. Then a window with the properties of the new device will appear. Go to device and select the device from the drop down list. apply the changes and then click on the new device link. You may be able to do this without first deleting the original and just reselect the device from properties but that did not work for me. Good luck
Let me give that a try, thanks.sudo mount -a /dev/hdx /mnt/hdx

Actually the cdroms show up as links on the desktop but the hds don't. I just go into I think Linux Tag, the top left icon, and then click on devices on the left, and then click on hda1. I wll give your method a try as well, thanks,I experienced this with my 3 cd drives.

Please let me know if you have any other ideas.
Firebyrd10, I tried your solution and here is the error that it gave me:
I should probably also mention that now when I boot up knoppix, I cannot access the internet. I first have to go to Knoppix -> Network/Internet -> Network Card Configuration. When I click on Network Card Configuration it gives me that same error message as when I tried your method. After running Network Card Configuration my internet works fine.

I tried that and it didn't work, same error message.I experienced this with my 3 cd drives.

Its a long shot, but try knoppix testcd at boot.
