new attempt, ext2 is the fliesystem, thats correct
I tried it like this, to mount it at boot. But this entry in fstab
tells me that the special device is not available.
I have to translate this into english, the installation I made is not english.
Trying again, needing more coffee and chocolate, because its a riddle, that I still use an mp3-player bought back in 2009, that since then never caused any trouble plugging it in, on Ubuntu, BSD, Fedora and Debian. This tiny mp3-player and its software is made by a well known japanese OEM brand. So what is the riddle with that fstab to not recognize a OEM brand hdd. Last attempt threw me back to rescue mode. An unknown device, blinking initfs or ramfs, not even rebooting was accepted.
rethinking the mount point, as my fstab tells me root is at /, I typed into the fstab a mountpoint that is given by the command
in the /etc folder, but trying as root to mount just like this
once again I am told the special device is not there. Yep, very special.
So the root acts like this
The fstab looks now like this
I already tried default as an option, dump set to 2, it remains unreadable. So, if someone has got a better hint than wiki for fstab on unix-like systems, I would appreciate it.
