http://www.linuxquestions.org – After an upgrade on ubuntu 9.10 monday 8 of march I got some problems. On start up I got a message Code: One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted: /home: waiting for UUID= f9fba71d-e17c-4eb4-b531-b0e258853c15 I looked int the /etc/fstab file: Code: # /etc/fstab: static file system information # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 #dev/sda1 UUID=55ba883b-64e1-4056-9809-33d5149d2076 / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1 #/dev/sda6 UUID=f9fba71d-e17c-4eb4-b531-b0e258853c15 /home ext3 relatime 0 2 #/dev/sda5 UUID=6c5d9561-76a2-4c5c-9d51-13cb2a12e7f9 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0 usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs devgid=14,devmode=0660 0 0 I did not understand too much so I tried to mount home Code: root# mount /home UUID=f9fba71d-e17c-4eb4-b531-b0e258853c15 does not exist. After some struggling I found a solution to my problem. In /etc/fstab I switched the line Code: UUID=f9fba71d-e17c-4eb4-b531-b0e258853c15 /home ext3 relatime 0 2 with Code: /dev/sda6 /home ext3 relatime 0 2 this worked fine. (HowTos)
