Next: how to stop RHEL (or OEL) from trying to mount other disks notin fstab
From: The Derfer on 24 Apr 2010 22:26 If I put another hard disk (an old boot disk with a /, /boot and iother partitions) in a box that already has an "sda" drive that it boots from (bootloader on MBR), how can I stop the OS from trying to automatically detect and (more importantly) mount the filesystems on sdb? I tried this recently in Oracle Enterprise Linux and got kernel panics; the system almost seemed to want to use the "/" partition on sdb instead of sda, and it complained about non-ext3 filesystems on sdb (which made sense, they were xfs) that it couldn't mount? How can I tell the system "Don't try to mount anything on anything not already listed in /etc/fstab"? |
