Problem when mount /home, in boot time...

[gilberto.nunes32@…]

Hi...

I have installed Zentyal 2.3 in a virtualbox enviroment, and when I try install with expert mode, using /home in a separate partition, the zentyal do not found out /home partiton... In the begininng, I thing that 'cause I have used a different file system (BRTFS), so I change it to XFS, but the problem persist... In both cases, the system crash, and I'm unable to boot the system. But when I attempt to install in a fully automatic mode, all work well...

Thanks Zentyal... :)

Hello Gilberto,

I suspect that either was a error in the chosen configuration or if it is installer's bug is very dependent of the layout and filesystems used.

I have just tested it using 2 ext4 filesystems. /home has been mounted without problem. I choose ext4 because is the default. Later I will try with xfs but probably it would also work.

I have this disk layout:

Disk /dev/sda: 8589 MB, 8589934592 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1044 cylinders, total 16777216 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x000781a5

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1        14823424    16775167      975872   82  Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda2   *        2048     7813119     3905536   83  Linux
/dev/sda3         7813120    14823423     3505152   83  Linux

Partition table entries are not in disk order

Well, a second through i had not used lvm on this last installation. There are many combinations so it would be easier if you give me the exact partition table /lvm setu/ etc.

Also I want to point out that it is easy to make mistakes with you are using lvm, raid so maybe this was the problem.

Hello Gilberto,

we have not seen this problem in us installations, so I need your exact partitions/lvm/raid configuration.

Please, reopen if you can provide it
