    Can not access a partition ????

    Hi, i am having troubles getting access to a partition . The problem is that i reinstalled windows and sure after reinstalling i restored Grub, now i have grub and all things working but the problem is that i can not access the partition where i installed windows (the primary partition) and this is what its giving me during the boot:
    * Mounting Local Filesystems ...
    Failed to access '/dev/disk/by-uuid/B8382F38383EF553' : No Such file or directory
    {FAIL}
    Any Ideas ?

    When you performed the Windows reinstallation ceremony, which includes a reformatting of the "drive", it probably created a new UUID for that partition.

    In a Konsole window run
    Code:
    blkid
    Compare the output in that window to the output of
    Code:
    cat /etc/fstab
    in another Konsole window. My guess is that the UUID for the NTFS partition has changed. If you will use Kate in Super User mode, you can copy the UUID from the window where you ran blkid, and paste it into the /etc/fstab file.
