A mount point is a folder you choose to mount a filesystem in.

In your commands it should be /dev/sdb1 NOT /sdb1.

You can see what applications are using a particular mount point by running

I had this problem today. I managed to fix it but I'm not quite sure what fixed it so I'll just have to list the different things I tried.

First of all the error message

I've found that gdm should be started as a service rather than directly running the command directly.



sudo service gdm start #Ubuntu Karmic & Lucid

If you want your luks encrypted hard drive to be mounted at boot you need to add that entry to /etc/crypttab and add the mapper device in /etc/fstab not the drive itself.

Same problem here.

1.I found that the GUI tools didn't work at all for removing an old user account on my system.

Hmm not sure the problem is entirely fixed. I'm not sure why your home partition has no UUID.

Hmm pretty sure you can just do


grep -r --files-with-matches 'search string' /folder/to/search/

That will recursively serarch /folder/to/search with your search string. Use the -F option if...

Looks at
man iso_8859-1

Scroll down there is a list of Hex codes

Well your home partition isn't even being listed in the list of UUIDs.

I don't know what Ubuntu uses for default home partition encryption.

To find out if it is LUKS you can run

Are you using gpg?

If you are sounds like you've lost your private key but still have your public key. If that's the case you will never get your data back. When you export your key set you need...

Can you output

ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid

Instead that will actually tell us what device the UUID actually corresponds to.

Also you say that you have an encrypted home partition, do you know if...

You can manually add parameters at boot up at the grub menu. If you menu does not appear at boot up then you need to hold down the shift key.

Ubuntu is probably asking you for your password as it needs root permissions to mount the drive.

@mrothgeb - Yuck. I wouldn't encourage that graphical root... big no no. Probably won't work anyway...

I expect Nautilus will probably use ssh-agent to manage keys so it will probably expect your private key to be in on of these:

~/.ssh/id_rsa
~/.ssh/id_dsa
~/.ssh/identity

You should put the...

It sounds like everything is working fine, you're probably just not used to Ubuntu's behaviour.

In linux hard drives and DVD/CD drives need to be mounted. If a drive is not mounted it will not be...

When you say there are no drivers? What's not working, apart from your modem?

You might be able to get your modem working if you enable restricted drivers but unfortunately need internet access...

You may already have the program installed. In your terminal run
