Partition showing up twice under devices
- by JohnReed
I have an ntfs data partition on the same drive as my ubuntu 12.04 partition. I wanted to have this partition automatically mount at startup so that dropbox can start syncing at startup without me having to manually mount it (my dropbox folder is on the partition). I edited the fstab file by appending the following to it:
#Data-Partition
UUID=762639DE416D0A21 /media/Data ntfs-3g rw,auto,users,exec,nls=utf8,umask=003,gid=46,uid=1000 0 2
The drive now automounts at startup like I wanted, but now I have a duplicate Data entry under my Devices list. This only appeared after editing the fstab file.
The second Data entry under Devices does not mount properly and I do not want it there.
Why is this duplicate entry there and how can I get rid of it?
additional information:
Here is the output I get from cat /proc/partitions:
