Hi -back again with some weirdness;
mount tool shows double entries (from top to bottom: sda1, sda1, sda2, sda2, sda3, sda3, sda5,sda5, sdb1, sdb1, sr0, sr0 -only the sr0 (both) are green/mounted, others red/not mounted)
I booted tc9.0 off a cd ( burnt a CorePlus 9.0 32 bit iso on it; usually works fine/as expected) on a dell laptop e6410 with 4GB; after the usual boot i inserted a flash drive, and then clicked on the mount tool icon. CorePlus exists only on the cd/no other partition has tc on it
when I 'fdisk -l' it displays /dev/sda 149GB: sda1 partition id: de, sda2 id 7, sda3 id 7, [extended] sda4 id f - Win95 ext'd (LBA), sda5 id 7 [extended] /dev/sdb 29GB: sdb1 id c
'blkid' lists (first 6 in order:) ..sda2, ..sda5, ..sda3, ..sda1, ..sr0, ..sdb1 - all listed just once
...and I just rebooted by using the icon, leaving the flash drive in,.... and it works as expected with no double entries after clicking the mount icon
Any thoughts on why?
