Mounting Local file system: Failed

[clifweb]

Durring start up an error a failed signal is being displayed when mounting the local file system.
An other failed message is shown when mounting my ntfs drive partions. Can some one help me please

/etc/fstab

LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
LABEL=SWAP-sdb3 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sda5 /media/d_drive ntfs-3g defaults 0 0
/dev/sdb5 /media/e_drive ntfs-3g defaults 0 0

--------------------------
When loged the resulutions is 640*480.
Help please

What are the error message(s)? Do the folders /media/drive_d and /media/drive_e exist? I don't like that line that starts with LABEL=SWAP-sdb3. Doesn't look right. Here's my /etc/fsab for comparison:

[glenn@toshiba ~]$ cat /etc/fstab
LABEL=/1 / ext3 defaults 1 1
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sda7 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sda5 /media/fedora6 ext3 defaults 0 0
/dev/sda2 /media/vista ntfs-3g defaults 0 0

This is a Fedora 7 system.

yes both filenames they are available. Everything was fine. They were created the day that F7 was released. The resolution problem is fixed. The Nvidia drivers are running again normally. about this LABEL=SWAP-sdb3 swap swap defaults 0 0 I don't know I haven't changed anything lately from this file apart when I created the mounting.

Maybe this will Help: fdisk -l

Is this Fedora 7 or Fedora Core 6? Is NTFS-3G installed? rpm -q ntfs-3g
How about the output of ls /media ??

[clifweb]

I am using Fedora 7 and in the Media folder all the other folders mentioned above are present

[glennzo]

What about rpm -q ntfs-3g, which I think is a stock part of Fedora 7.

[clifweb]

Ntfs -3g should be installed as I sad it worked from the data of the Fedora 7 released date. NTFS -3g was installed by default and worked fine untill today. when I boot back into fedora I will try to uninstall ntfs-3g and re install it.

Post the output of
dmseg | grep signal
dmesg | grep failed
dmesg | grep local

Another thought. Is there a backup of /etc/fstab in the /etc folder ??? Probably fstab~. Maybe you could compare the 2 files for clues as to what's happening here.

[clifweb]

Output for: rpm -q ntfs-3g
ntfs-3g-1.516-1.fc7

Whar are :
dmseg | grep signal?
dmesg | grep failed?
dmesg | grep local?

[clifweb]

Something is really wrong with my system. I remove the mounting that I set and reinstall ntfs-3g and that porblem is solved. Now the biggest problem is my resolution is 640*480 I can increases the resolution. Berly is working but my system is freaking out. HELP

Those are typos. Should read
dmesg | grep signal
dmesg | grep failed
dmesg | grep local
