Samba:Can't mount ext3 file format, but ntfs is good

[musta78]

Ok. So I have done this easy home file server from this thread. http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu-home-fileserver

I know that they say in the beginning that you need ntfs file format.

The thing is. The harddrive I've installed Ubuntu server 8.04.2 is divided into 2 partions. It's the other partion I have trouble getting to when browsing in windows. I have mounted another harddrive wich has ntfs, and it works fine.

I can see both drives when browsing, but the content is the same on both!

I've added two lines in fstab:
/dev/sda1 /media/store ext3 defaults 0 0
/dev/sdb1 /media/store ntfs defaults 0 0

Is there anything I can do so it works with ext3 also?

This is all my harddrives, and it is sda1 I have trouble with.

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 86369 693758961 83 Linux

/dev/sda5 90920 91201 2265133+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris

Partition table entries are not in disk order

This is my setting in /etc/fstab:

# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# /dev/sda3

/dev/sda1 /media/store ext3 defaults 0 0
/dev/sdb1 /media/store ntfs defaults 0 0

Solved:

The important part is that every harddrive must be mounted in a different folder.

So what I needed to change was /media/store on sdb1 to media/store2

Easy when you know what to do
