I have a weird problem. Here are my mounts (as read from fstab).
----
#
# /etc/fstab
#
# You should be using fstool (control-panel) to edit this!
#
# <device> <mountpoint> <filesystemtype> <options> <dump> <fsckorder>
/dev/hda2 / ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/hdc1 /a ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/hda1 /dosc msdos defaults 0 0
/dev/hdb /mnt/cdrom iso9660 ro 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy ext2 defaults,noauto 0 0
/dev/hda3 none ext2 defaults 0 0
/proc /proc proc defaults
/dev/hda4 none swap sw
/dev/hdc2 none swap sw
----------
I have never had to use /dev/hda3 so it was normally just sitting there.
Now i need to use it, so i thought pas problem; i'll just mount it
----
[root@glink /root]# mount /dev/hda3 -t ext2 /home
[root@glink /root]# cd /home
[root@glink /home]# ls
lost+found
[root@glink /home]#
-----
And now /home/* files are gone! What is going on?
[root@glink /home]# rpm -q mount
mount-2.5k-1
[root@glink /home]#
cheers
