Mount problem (strenge)

[qczek]

Hello,
I would like to say hallo, because it's my first post on this forrum.

I have got little problem with mounting more then one partition on my external usb 40 GB disk.

It looks like that:

HD is splited into 3 partitions, one for swap, one ext2 and one for vfat.

                Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/discs/disc0/part1               1         489      500720   82  Linux swap
/dev/discs/disc0/part2             490        8303     8001536   83  Linux
/dev/discs/disc0/part3            8304       38154    30567424    b  Win95 FAT32

all USB application are disabled, and lates oleg's firmware is instaled.

Following script is used for boot time mounting

[admin@fhome root]$ cat /usr/local/sbin/post-boot
#!/bin/sh

# load additional modules
insmod /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/scsi/scsi_mod.o
insmod /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/scsi/sd_mod.o
insmod /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.o

# wait for /opt to mount
mount /dev/discs/disc0/part2 /opt
i=0
while [ $i -le 15 ]
do
if [ -d /opt/etc ]
then
break
fi
sleep 1
i=`expr $i + 1`
done


# Activate swap
swapon /dev/discs/disc0/part1

# mount vfat paritionon
mkdir /tmp/bighd
mount -t vfat /dev/discs/disc0/part3 /tmp/bighd

# Run all active services - active means starts with S
/opt/etc/init.d/rc.unslung

after restart following mount points exists:

[admin@fhome root]$ mount
/dev/root on / type squashfs (ro)
none on /dev type devfs (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
ramfs on /tmp type ramfs (rw)
usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)
/dev/discs/disc0/part2 on /opt type ext3 (rw)
/dev/discs/disc0/part3 on /tmp/bighd type vfat (rw)
/dev/discs/disc0/part1 on /tmp/harddisk type vfat (ro,sync)

and of course swap is activated too

[admin@fhome root]$ free
              total         used         free       shared      buffers
  Mem:        30140        10972        19168            0         1492
 Swap:       500712            0       500712
Total:       530852        10972       519880

Could you please explain why part1 is mounted on /tmp/harddisk and how disable it, and how it is possible to mount swap partition.
Thank you in advance

When that happend on mine it was normally stupid-ftpd causing it.
You have to kill it and mount the partition where you want.
It might have been been better if you had made 1st partition /opt and then it would get mounted before stupid-ftpd got chance to grab it.
I followed this guide and it worked for me:
