SanDisk SD Card — Unable to mount location

SanDisk SD Card — Unable to mount location

Post by Drake2k » Mon Jul 13, 2009 1:12 pm

I have an HP 6320 Laptop with built in SD card reader «SD MS/Pro MMC SM XD»

In Mint 6 it worked out of the box no issues. I plug any SD card in the slot and poof, I have a new drive on my desktop that I can pull pictures off of. In Mint 7 however not so much.

When I hope «Computer» it shows my CD Rom, My Hard drive and SD/MMC Drive. When I double click on that I get the error «Unable to mount location Can’t mount file»

This is a fresh install out of the box no changes in configurations have been made. Main edition (Using Gnome)

Not sure what difference from 6 to 7 made to how the drive is handled but as I mentioned, The drive is good as it worked fine in mint 6.

Thank you however this didn’t help. I looked at this thread earlier and tried the steps listed before posting. I figured it was different hardware hence why I posted a new thread instead of posting on to that one. I don’t have a digital camara or external reader, mine is built into the laptop. Also it didn’t appear as though this fixed the problem for the original poster.

If worse comes to worse I’ll just down grade back to Linux 6 Felicia until a valid solution can be made.

SOLVED: SanDisk SD Card — Unable to mount location

Post by Drake2k » Tue Jul 14, 2009 11:14 pm

Thank you for a straight answer. From this I had to wonder how then could I format it, if Linux will not see it. I tried gparted but it looked at me funny and laughed. So then (don’t kill me) I took the card and put it in a windows machine. Low and behold it did not work there either. Then I said to myself. I know it worked on mint 6, so I booted my laptop with the live CD and got the same results as I did in 7. Well crap. It was working before but now it’s not. I don’t get it.

Since it wouldn’t read in windows nor linux I put it in my digital camera. I got a card read error. Grr. So something messed up my card and I can’t blame linux because It could have been any number of things. The camera did allow me to format the card and once I did that I was able to read the card just fine in any system. I lost all my pictures though.

So there you have it. It has nothing to do with it being a Sandisk removable device nor did it have anything to do with upgrading to mint 7. All is well except for the lost pictures.

Thank you for the help.

You could make one last ditch effort to partition it using the command line program «cfdisk».
Insert the card, open a terminal, type «cfdisk /dev/. » . Follow the Help if you don’t know how to use cfdisk or read «man cfdisk».
(Replace the . with the correct device name as shown from fdisk -l)

Then you need to format the SD card — if you will use it in a Window box do this: «mkfs.vfat /dev/. «

I can access through /home in «File System» or on the desktop.

The output of /etc/fstab is:

if you can access your home through file system then it’s not a major problem.you can ignore this problem & continue using OS without worrying too much.
or
try this if it fixes your problem:
edit the last line of the fstab file to:
UUID=e9ccd751-fb3c-46f4-a4c8-e7ca7eb76069 /home ext4 defaults 0 2
you need to open the fstab file with superuser privillage to make any changes in it.
this code can help you:
gksudo gedit /etc/fstab

if this doesn’t fix your problem then try deleting these lines:
# UNCONFIGURED FSTAB FOR BASE SYSTEM
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
from your fstab file.
and of course, restart to see the result.

[SOLVED] «Unable to mount location — can’t mount file»

[SOLVED] «Unable to mount location — can’t mount file»

Post by wrahim » Sun Jun 08, 2014 10:17 am

I have tried to fix this on my own by looking for information online, but I would like to solve this without losing all my data from my 1 TB external harddrive.

Problem: upon connecting external hdd, you can hear the usb device connect sound. However trying to get inside it results in » Unable to mount location — can’t mount file» error.

I have not done much, but when in terminal these are the results of the following commands:

Does this have anything to do with the fact that both disks (my primary internal 120GB ssd and the external 1TB) have the same Id (/dev/sda1/ and /dev/sdb1 have the same Id)?

I have seen one solution to a very similar problem, but the person ended up using gparted to format the drive. I can NOT do this, I have too much data, that I am not willing to let go of yet. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

You can only use mount /dev/sdb1/ if you have an fstab entry otherwise you have to specify the mount point e.g.,

sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/external

Note: I did have to manually create /external inside /media.

EDIT: oh man I really don’t like the «NTFS signature is missing.» .

Alright, I am running a recovery tool on the external drive in windows. I’ll update this post soon after. Thanks everyone for your help so far.

This was a longer process than I originally thought it would be. The problem was that my external drives boot sector was destroyed (somehow in the process of installing mint. which didn’t happen any other time). After attempting to fix the disk using various partition/data recovery tools, I decided it is best to just recover the files I need and reformat the disk. The tool I used to recover my lost and unreachable data was TestDisk; I highly recommend this to anyone with similar problems. It’s free, open source, and it works!

I have a 2 Tetra bite usb drive that is half NTFS and half EXT4. The NTFS partition is fine, but today the EXT4 side gave me:

«Unable to mount location Internal error: No mount object for mounted volume»

Tried shutting down, unplugging and reconnecting but same problem.

Have you done anything that might have made the partition not show?
Anything in the Disks program?
Where does your Timeshift save to?

It started right after I used Backup Tool to save a backup to that partition.
I may have used Timeshift with that partition in the past but currently it is set to go to the NTFS side that is working.

Hi,
Timeshift only works with ext4. It won’t work with NTFS — in fact I don’t think its reasonably possible to get Timeshift to point to NTFS at all, so it must be pointing to the system drive (if it is EXT4), or the drive that you can’t access.

Can you go into Timeshift and see what backups are there and possibly let it navigate you to those folders — just see where it takes you and post back.

[SOLVED] «Unable to mount location» error message

[SOLVED] «Unable to mount location» error message

Post by vladi99 » Tue Feb 09, 2021 12:33 am

I upgraded my Linux Mint installation from 19.1 to 20.1 and I lost connection to WDTVLiveHub which is connected to the home network.

I can still see the icon of WDTVLiveHub (looks like a folder) under Network tab, but when I try to open it, I see «Unable to mount location» error message; it also says «Failed to retrieve share list from server: Software caused connection abort». The other folder located next to it, «Windows Network», can be opened but contains nothing. I tried to look into network setting, but did not find anything useful. Quick search for the solution of my problem on this forum was not very successful either.

Interestingly, with the previous version of Mint (19.1) I could open the folder called WDTVLiveHub and do all necessary operations with the files located in the WDTVLiveHub internal hard drive. When I boot from Mint 19.1 boot media, I still have access to WDTVLiveHub hard drive as before.

Could you please suggest a solution to this issue ?

Thank you AndyMH,

It does seem to be relevant; first I tried approach [1a] and [2a] by editing smb.conf file, but could not save the modified file at the end. Any suggestions here ?

Also tried entering the address in file browser like suggested in [1b]:
>smb://hostname.local/share-name
using «S20» (my machine name returned by hostname command) as a hostname, and «wdtvlivehub» (the network resource I am trying to access) as share-name, also unsuccessfully.
>smb://S20.local/wdtvlivehub
>smb://wdtvlivehub.local/wdtvlivehub => works on Mint 19.1, not on 20.1

Finally, I was looking into manual mounting command such as suggested in [1c] and [2b]:
>sudo mount -t cifs -o guest,uid=1000 //hostname.local/share-name /mount-point
>sudo mount -t cifs -o guest,uid=1000,vers=1.0,sec=ntlm //hostname.local/share-name /mount-point

Could you or anyone else explain me what the proper parameters to use in this command and how to find them
(for example: hostname.local = S20.local; share-name = wdtvlivehub; mount point = . )

By the way, the WDTVLiveHub is controlled by TwonkyMedia server, which is probably based on Linux, so it is surprising why two Linux computers refuse to communicate .
