Cannot mount volume

  Date: Dec 14    Category: Unix / Linux / Ubuntu    Views: 504
  

I finally got rid of Windows permanently. I made the drive I was
using for Windows the secondary drive in my system. I used the Ubuntu
partition editor to erase the Windows partition and make it an ext3
partition. Last night I was able to read the drive and I was even
able to store files there. Today I went to mount the drive and I go
the following error message:

Cannot mount volume
Unable to mount volume 'Storage',

Details
mount_point cannot contain the following
characters: newline, G_DIR_SEPERATOR (usually /)


Did I do something wrong? Are the files I stored there gone forever?

I found a fix for my problem and thought I'd share it with all of
you.

It's a blog post titled:
How to [mount_point cannot contain the following characters: newline,
G_DIR_SEPARATOR (usually /)]

Here's the link:

There is also a gui way to do it. If you have Configuration Editor
Showing in your >Applications>System Tools menu you can just click on
it there.
