I could each time my system crashes "localmount" couldn't mount two partitions of my HDD (which should mount under /COMMON, a FAT one, and /WINDOWS, a NTFS one). Issuing mount gives the incorrect sensation they are really mounted though but the only way to them mounted correctly again is to "umount /COMMON", "umount /WINDOWS" and issue "mount -a". Besides, mounting without a previous umount mounts them twice(???): RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # mount rootfs on / type rootfs (rw) /dev/root on / type ext3 (rw,noatime,data=ordered) proc on /proc type proc (rw) sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec) udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,nosuid) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,nosuid,noexec) usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,devmode=0664,devgid=85) binfmt_misc on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,devmode=0664,devgid=85) binfmt_misc on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,devmode=0664,devgid=85) binfmt_misc on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) /dev/sda1 on /WINDOWS type ntfs (rw,noatime) /dev/sda3 on /COMMON type vfat (rw,noatime) shm on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # ls /WINDOWS/ RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # ls /COMMON/ RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # mount -a RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # ls /COMMON/ RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # file /WINDOWS/.windows-label /WINDOWS/.windows-label: ASCII text, with no line terminators RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # cat /WINDOWS/.windows-label Drive DRJZ-LNX ipsec.d # RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # cat /COMMON/.windows-label cat: /COMMON/.windows-label: No such file or directory RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # cat /COMMON/ cat: /COMMON/: Is a directory RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # mount /COMMON/ RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # mount /WINDOWS/ RJZ-LNX ipsec.d # Sep 17 09:29:23 RJZ-LNX NTFS volume version 3.1.

Created attachment 165676 [details] syslog messages for the system boot after the crash
Are the respective drivers in your kernel or modules. The dmesg output (why didn't you just post that?) in the system log suggests that the NTFS driver is in the kernel but the VFAT driver is not.
(In reply to comment #4) > Are the respective drivers in your kernel or modules. Hi Jeroen, they are not modules. Just in case: RJZ-LNX linux # egrep -i "fat|ntfs" .config CONFIG_X86_MCE_NONFATAL=y # DOS/FAT/NT Filesystems CONFIG_FAT_FS=y CONFIG_VFAT_FS=y CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_CODEPAGE=437 CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_IOCHARSET="iso8859-1" CONFIG_NTFS_FS=y # CONFIG_NTFS_DEBUG is not set # CONFIG_NTFS_RW is not set > The dmesg output (why didn't you just post that?) The problem is I had already rebooted the PC so the dmesg output for that moment is gone :-( In any case, whatever else you need just tell me. I mean, this is not crux for me, but if I can help to improve things, I'll. Thanks, Rolando.
Did you watch the system booting after the crash, if so were there any messages about failed mounts "Some local filesystem failed to mount"?
(In reply to comment #6) > Did you watch the system booting after the crash, if so were there any messages > about failed mounts "Some local filesystem failed to mount"? Not that I can remember :-( May be I can try to reproduce the crash, in such case what info should I try to gather?
(In reply to comment #7) > May be I can try to reproduce the crash, in such case what info should I try to gather? Any info that will help Gentoo developers improve recovery from a bad NTFS/VFAT unmount. This bug report isn't going anywhere without at least a useful Summary that can be used to aim for improvement.
Created attachment 166107 [details] console dump after crash I just got another crash (cause of some IPSec tests I'm doing) so I could gather some more info. Lemme know if this enough. Should you need something else, drop me a line.
OK, let's assume for the moment that it's a baselayout-2 problem.
/dev/sda1 /WINDOWS ntfs noatime 0 0 /dev/sda3 /COMMON vfat noatime 0 0 So the disks were not unmounted cleanly and they're not set to fsck at boot? I would guess that the fsck helpers for them registered them in mounts but didn't actually mount them, so there's probably a bug there. Try setting the passno of them to 2. Also, check if /proc is really mounted - cat /proc/uptime; sleep 2; cat /proc/uptime; If the same, /proc isn't mounted and mount output will be incorrect.
(In reply to comment #11) > So the disks were not unmounted cleanly and they're not set to fsck at boot? I don't enable check as sometimes I left Windows hibernated (of course, I only do that when I don't need anything from any of those partitions) > Also, check if /proc is really mounted - cat /proc/uptime; sleep 2; cat > /proc/uptime; > If the same, /proc isn't mounted and mount output will be incorrect. They aren't the same: RJZ-LNX ~ # cat /proc/uptime; sleep 2; cat /proc/uptime 7194.75 4366.93 7196.75 4368.50 BTW, I think this might happen each time one removes the battery and unplugs the AC adapter though (not neceseraly as a consequence of a crash)

> Why should the use of Windows being hibernated affect the passno in /etc/fstab? Well, may be I'm wrong (I'm everything but an expert on this) but I don't like to have one OS touching a partition another OS saw before hibernating. Suppose, for instance, fsck detects an error (as may be because of this bug, for instnace) and decides to correct it. Then when waking up the hibernated Windoze, it would try to correct the defects "corrected" by fsck.
Well, that's Window's problem isn't it :) But I'm pretty sure that Windows won't do that anyway. Either way, the only possible bug here is the mount helpers registering unclean ntfs/vfat mounts as mounted but not actually doing it. Nothing baselayout or OpenRC. So, over to the Gentoo devs :)
if you have problems with fsck tools on fat/ntfs, then you should talk to the ntfs related projects. you really shouldnt be fscking ntfs anyways. as Roy said, the only issue here seems to be /etc/mtab management. try removing /etc/mtab and making it a symlink to /proc/mounts and see if things get mounted properly after that.
