Ubuntu doesn't auto mount my ntfs partition

[jemrpo]

Hi here is my /etc/fstab

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# /dev/sdb8
UUID=4e1775bb-a411-4b7b-a4fe-08e63980101e / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro $
# /dev/sdb7
UUID=e17a23f2-3240-9994-1d2b-60e26db8a65e none swap sw 0 0
/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0
###
/dev/sda1 /media/disk ntfs-3g realtime,auto,nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0
/dev/sdb6 /media/disk-1 ntfs-3g realtime,auto,nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0
/dev/sdb5 /media/Musica ntfs-3g realtime,auto,nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0

when I start ubuntu it doesn't load sda1, sda6 ,sda5 partition by default, so when I try ie with amarok It doesn't play any music...
I have to go to gnome menu -> places -> home folder. then I have to click on these partitions and they start working. what could I add to my fstab to make my partitions from the beginning without doing what I've already explained.

I'm not familiar with the realtime option (it could be valid). Try looking through system logs with:
dmesg | grep sda

Ok, it looks like they're mounting properly. I believe the issue is with permissions. Let's try:
/dev/sda1 /media/disk ntfs-3g realtime,auto,nls=utf8,uid=1000,gid=100 0 0
/dev/sdb6 /media/disk-1 ntfs-3g realtime,auto,nls=utf8,uid=1000,gid=100 0 0
/dev/sdb5 /media/Musica ntfs-3g realtime,auto,nls=utf8,uid=1000,gid=100 0 0

You are using different options that I do, here is a peak at my fstab, maybe will do for you either:


# /dev/sda1
UUID=5C10CDFE10CDDF60 /media/System ntfs rw,noatime,relatime,nosuid,nodev,auto 0 0
# /dev/sda2
UUID=3E448444448400BF /media/DATA ntfs rw,noatime,relatime,nosuid,nodev,auto 0 0


If not, look at this (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=766688&highlight=automount+partitions).

[jemrpo]

sudo vol_id -u /dev/sda1

so your fstab file will have this line
Quote:
UUID=NUMBER_ID /media/backup ntfs defaults,umask=007,gid=46 0 1
where NUMBER_ID is the output from vol_id for your device, i.e.:
UUID=78980E1B980DD890 /media/backup ntfs defaults,umask=007,gid=46 0 1
instead of
/dev/sda1 /media/backup ntfs defaults,umask=007,gid=46 0 1



done deal with that..
thx guys.
