Mount partition in linux

by linux003 . Updated 18 years, 7 months ago

Hi,

I am having following partition table.

hdb1 – boot
hdb2 – root

hdc1 – boot
hdc2 – root

Both the HDDs have same distribution OEL5.I can only mount the hdb1 if i boot from hdc or mount only hdc1 if i boot from hdb.When I try to mount root partition,it says that file system is wrong.I use the following command.At this time my booting HDD is hdc.

I create a folder /mnt/hdb2

mount -t ext2 /dev/hdb2 /mnt/hdb2

I am not getting any error for following command.

mount -t ext2 /dev/hdb1 /mnt/hdb1

No issues to view the content of /mnt/hdb1.

Can anybody clear this? Pl
