Unknown drive in Places menu

[gavdari]

I have a NTFS partition called Local Disk on my hard drive. But beside that, there is another Local Disk in my places menu that whenever I click on it, I get the following error:

Unable to mount Local Disk
Unprivileged user can not mount NTFS block devices using the external FUSE
library. Either mount the volume as root, or rebuild NTFS-3G with integrated
FUSE support and make it setuid root. Please see more information at
http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#unprivilegedThere is no sign of this drive in /media or /mnt or even fstab. Here's my fstab file:

UUID=36CC3005CC2FBE4D /media/Windows ntfs-3g defaults 0 0

Let's get a better look at your setup & boot process. Boot the Ubuntu Live CD/USB. Choose "try ubuntu without any changes", when the desktop loads come back here and do the following:

1. Download the boot info script. There is a link in my signature.
2. Once downloaded move the boot info script to the desktop.
3. Open a terminal and run the command
sudo bash ~/Desktop/boot_info_script*.sh

This will create a RESULTS.txt file on the desktop. Paste the entire contents of that file back here. Once pasted highlight all text and click the # sign on the toolbar to place code tags around the text.

See here (http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/) for more info on the boot info script.

Sorry it took long. Downloading from sourceforge in Iran is always a serious challenge.

To tell you the truth I don't know how your windows is still booting because your windows 7 is in a logical partition (sda5) and it's boot files are combined with the boot files for your recovery partition (sda1)
