Hey.. I looking for a bit of help (arent we all...)

I'm running Archlinux with Kernel 2.6.23 and have KDE 3.5.8 (Arch KDEmod).

The only problem I have is that I cannot see my / partition in the File Management profile in Konqueror. My / partition is on an LVM RAID0 Stripe. KDE Detects/Mounts USB Media and my IPOD like a champ though. In the URL Bar in Konqueror I can type "/" and hit enter, then I can see my root filesystem, but it does not appear in the left pane as a selectable media.

Help! :-)

Under "Storage Media" I have the following visible:

"296M Media" - my /boot partition (Why is it mounting it? wish it wasnt, but no biggie)
"500G Media" - my External USB Hard Drive
"IPOD" - Self Explanatory
"Remote Share (nas:/myth)" - A NAS NFS Share mounted with /etc/fstab

My /etcffstab

#
# /etc/fstab: static file system information
#
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
none /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 ro,user,noauto,unhide 0 0
/dev/mapper/lvmgrp0-root / jfs defaults 0 1
/dev/mapper/lvmgrp0-swap swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sda1 /boot ext3 defaults 0 1


My /etc/mtab

/dev/mapper/lvmgrp0-root / jfs rw 0 0
none /proc proc rw 0 0
none /sys sysfs rw 0 0
none /dev ramfs rw 0 0
none /proc/bus/usb usbfs rw 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0
/dev/sda1 /boot ext3 rw 0 0
nfsd /proc/fs/nfsd nfsd rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0

So see the whole issue, look here:

Essentially this was an issue with the XFS filesystem. I changed to JFS and the problem went away..
