I have LL 2.2 on drive, Mint on sbd1 along with my data partition which was shared with LL 2.2/Mint/Windows 7 (Win 7 used to be on sbd2 as well, but I removed after I was able to get some Windows programs running on Wine).  Now booting into either LL or Mint I get this:


1) On boot it tells me it can't mount data and Skip it to continue. 
2) After boot attempting to mount manually I get: Failed to mount "Data"  Error mounting system-managed device /dev/sdb7: Command Line 'mount "/home/chris/data" exited with non-zero exit status 14: The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).
Metadata kept in Windows cache, refused to mount.
Failed to mount '/dev/sdb7': Operation not permitted
The NTFS partition is in an unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown
Windows fully (no hibernation or fast restarting), or mount the volume
read-only with the 'ro' mount option


The Windows 7 data was not linked there, that was simply a default save location.


Thoughts?  It worked so great for weeks!

I guess I should mention I tried ro mount option with the following and got a very similar error message:



chris@chris-HP:~$ udisksctl mount --block-device /dev/sdb7 --options ro
Error mounting /dev/sdb7: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Error.Failed: Error mounting system-managed device /dev/sdb7: Command-line `mount "/home/chris/Data"' exited with non-zero exit status 14: The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).

Huh, this is weird.  I booted numerous time into LL and Mint, same deal would not mount.  I am sure I have what's on there backed up somewhere, but figured I would boot Puppy and slap it on a usb stick just to be sure.  That went fine ... then when I rebooted LL it booted normally and the Data partition mounted, everything is there available. 


Anyone know why??

Hi Chris,

If you do a Google just for "exited with non-zero exit status 14"
Seems like a lot of posts on this, with quite a few fixes proposed, inc the one you tried.

Some seem related to how Windows left the partition the last time you used it.??

Sorry, not much help, but there is more stuff out there.

Thanks Dave,


Nice to know I am not the only one with the issue.  I will do a little reading, but hopefully it won't happen again.  It does I will probabby format i as a Linux partition not NTSF since windows isn't using it any more.


Chris

Yes,
For ease of support having all ext4 probably makes sense,
if you don't have a need for Windows/NTFS compatibility anymore.

Hello!

I, too, have ran into that issue. If memory serves me, I believe it has to do with Windows' hiberfil.sys file - used for faster boot times, especially in Windows 8. There are a number of tutorials out there on how to disable the Windows hibernate function...

Yup.  It occurred to me later that I had hitched up an old drive for a couple days and was messing around a bit with Windows 10, and that had Fast Boot enabled.  Fixed that, but I am done messing around with that for a while, it's ok but also a reminder that Windows is way behind Linux at least as far as I am concerned.
