Hi :)
I've tried to install Ububntu 12.10 as my FIRST LINUX EXPRIENCE and it failed three times in 'copyng log files' stage of installation progress. anyway, after restart I've found that Ubuntu is installed ad everything is working. that time I've checked drives and all of them mounted properly. because of a problem in VGA I have 're-installed' Ubuntu and this time problem starts...
I have 2 hard disks installed, first one with windows on it and 6 logical drives (which is mounted successfully) and another hard disk with 2 drives. in windows these 2 drive doesn't have a type (logical/primary) and I think they're dynamic. but both of them have NTFS and are working greatly in windows 7.
I have one of these 2 drives(in second hard disk) mounted automatically and it's working. but problem is about second one, in windows disk manager I can see actually 3 drives in second disk, 2 of them have same name and label, but different sizes. if I jump to my computer then just one drive is shown, which size of that is equal to that two same-name drives.
when I click on that drive in Ubuntu I get this error:
Error mounting /dev/sdb3 at /media/developer/Store: Command-line `mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,dma sk=0077,fmask=0177" "/dev/sdb3" "/media/developer/Store"' exited with non-zero exit status 12: Failed to read last sector (802684927): Invalid argument
HINTS: Either the volume is a RAID/LDM but it wasn't setup yet,
or it was not setup correctly (e.g. by not using mdadm --build ...),
or a wrong device is tried to be mounted,
or the partition table is corrupt (partition is smaller than NTFS),
or the NTFS boot sector is corrupt (NTFS size is not valid).
Failed to mount '/dev/sdb3': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sdb3' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.
Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a
partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?

I'm really tired of searching and reading...
Really great job, Ubuntu, but Linux is yet scary cuz of such problems for me.
although there is a good sense after solving problems in geeky way, such what I've did with problem of setting FullHD res for my monitor :D
please help me!
thank you people
