Hi, Just installed and tried Clonezilla ver clonezilla-live-20100721-lucid.iso and booted my Linux box. I have two PATA partitions and a few more SCSI partitions. When I run fdisk from my (native) linux box, I see [root@meditest]# fdisk -l Disk /dev/hda: 1048 MB, 1048190976 bytes 32 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1015 cylinders Units = cylinders of 2016 * 512 = 1032192 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 1 131 132047+ 83 Linux /dev/hda2 132 1015 891072 83 Linux Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 1 17 136552 83 Linux /dev/sda2 18 540 4200997+ 82 Linux swap /dev/sda3 541 1846 10490445 83 Linux /dev/sda4 1847 30401 229368037+ 5 Extended /dev/sda5 1847 3152 10490444+ 83 Linux /dev/sda6 3153 4458 10490444+ 83 Linux /dev/sda7 4459 8636 33559784+ 83 Linux /dev/sda8 8637 9942 10490444+ 83 Linux /dev/sda9 9943 11248 10490444+ 83 Linux /dev/sda10 11249 12554 10490444+ 83 Linux /dev/sda11 12555 30401 143356027 83 Linux But when I boot off of clonezilla, and run fdisk -l, I get (bunch of stuff skipped) Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 1 131 nnnn 83 Linux /dev/sda2 132 1015 nnnnn 83 Linux // nnnn is ok...just lazy ...skipping stuff.... /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdb2 Basically, Clonezilla is seeing both my flash disk and sata disk as scsi disks?

Yes, it is on the list. I think this is just a side effect of the linux version that is running. More recent ones map about everything into /dev/sd? devices - and worse, it isn't all that predictable which one will get which number as they are detected especially if any of them are hotplug and may or may not be present at boot.

It has been my experience that linux will "see" PATA (the older IDE interface) drives as /dev/hda, etc., while SATA drives are treated like SCSI drives, or /dev/sda, etc. USB drives are ALSO seen as SCSI (/dev/sda). So this sounds pretty normal to me. On 09/15/2010 03:06 PM, Les Mikesell wrote: > Yes, it is on the list. I think this is just a side effect of the linux > version that is running.

That’s normal. There was a kernel update somewhere in the 2.6 branch that deprecated the ide driver in favor of scsi emulation. I don’t know the exact details off the top of my head.

Thanks Les and Andy, I suppose I can ignore this type recognition if I can solve my real problem, which lead me to this inquiry. My real problem is that I would like to boot off of clonezilla and proceed to mount the root filesystem (of the box being cloned) to learn stuff from /etc such as IP of the box and such. This is to automate the cloneing to an NFS location in a proper folder, for ease of restore and such. Currently when I clonezilla fdisk reports my root filesystem type to be 83. When I try to mount this like mount -t ext3 /dev/sda2 /mnt I get the following error message VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev sda2 mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda2 ... .....and bunch of other suggestions including see dmesg Any suggestions...

From the message you posted:
===================
Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 17 136552 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 18 540 4200997+ 82 Linux swap
/dev/sda3 541 1846 10490445 83 Linux
<snap>
===================
/dev/sda2 is swap, did you mean you want to mount /dev/sda3 actually?
Or please run:
sudo /sbin/blkid
then post the results.

Hi Steven, The posting was pointing out that on the clonee box (being cloned) my OS sees a hda and sda while when I boot to clonezilla, both flash and sata disks are being seen as sda and sdb. Per your recommendation and usage of blkid(1) and sda (a flash drive for /boot and / ) and sdb for other stuff. # blkid -p /dev/sda /dev/sda PTTYPE="dos" # blkid -p /dev/sda1 # echo $? 2 # blkid -p -u filesystem /dev/sda2 # echo $? 2 So mount(1) fails and blkid(1) is failing....is there any options for blkid to debug further...

I have figured out how to read the filesystem type from the superblock.... Looks like superblock on ext2 and ext3 starts at offset 1024 for a length of 1024. The ext2 magic code is 2 byte code ( EXT2_SUPER_MAGIC of value 0xEF53 ) . So, I dd(1) 2048 bytes out dd if=/dev/sda2 of=/tmp/2blocks bs=1024 count=2 I then use od(1) to and read 2 bytes from offset 1024 + 53 (some magic offset where fs type is)=1080 od -x -j1080 -N2 /tmp/2blocks 7b5a This is not oxEF53 which is the ext2, ext3 FS type. hence mount(1) can not work with it. Looks like this product (the one I am cloneing) vendor is playing FS type change game. Ok, I'll change it to what I want and then change it back. So I rolled up a handy dandy perl script to change FS type on the first superblock. And mount still fails. Do you know if mount(1) checks all the superblocks to make sure they are consistant? I am almost there to crack this case.

That's normal. Different kernel uses different config, and the kernel in
Clonezilla live 1.2.5 and 1.2.6 see most of the disk as /dev/sd*, not
/dev/hd*.

I mean you:
1. Boot clonezilla live
2. Choose to enter command line prompt
3. Run this command:
sudo /sbin/blkid
Then post the output messages of the above command.

You might try mounting as ext2. But also, I would never try to mount to
/mnt. Make a directory in /mnt and use that. e.g., /mnt/Temp

Hi Bill, Same result with ext2 and mounting on /joe This root partition is recognized as ext3 type on the box (being cloned, can I called it clone-ee vs cloner). The clonee is RH AS4.0 (RedHat 4) about 2007 and kernel 2.6.9.* . So whatever mount(1) version and/or VFS version is placed in clonezilla, it should be able to read that. Is there any tools to actually read the superblock and see what type is recorded? Thanks On Wed, Sep 15, 2010 at 12:26 PM, Bill Gurley <gu...@io...>wrote: > You might try mounting as ext2.

The installation is probably on LVM. I've seen directions somewhere on
how to detect and mount the volumes inside them but can't remember
where. And I tend to avoid LVM because I haven't seen good
documentation on how to recover from errors on them.

Yeah, I agree with Les. For desktop machines I always manually
partition so I can just use "regular" partitions. I do use LVM on large
servers where there is a reason for it.
Probably the easiest way to take a peek into that LVM file system is to
boot to the appropriate redhat installation CD (RHEL4?), and type 'linux
rescue' at the boot prompt. (I think that's right; it's been a while
since I did it.
Follow the prompts. It will offer to look for your root filesystem, so
it should easily find the lvm partition(s).

Hi Les,
No LVM....this is an embedded device/appliance (I am cloning), a flash drive
contains /boot and / (root). Here is the fdisk and dmesg
[root@meditest ]# dmesg | grep hda
ide0: BM-DMA at 0x30b0-0x30b7, BIOS settings: hda:pio, hdb:DMA
hda: PQI IDE DiskOnModule, ATA DISK drive

EXT3 FS on hda1, internal journal
[root@meditest]# fdisk -l /dev/hda

/dev/hda1 1 131 132047+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda2 132 1015 891072 83 Linux
Do you know of any tool that can read the superblock to examine the FS type.
