I am trying to get an attached EBS volume to mount on a customized (ots of php and rails
packages) version of the FC14 AMI.
It seems the sd devices aren't made by default; but even once they're made, mount
refuses to mount the volume
saying " /dev/sdf is not a valid block device" Its a an ext3 filesystem so
nothing novel there.
Everything works fine on my older instances with the same scripts; I can get he EBS volume
to attach to the instance (I have
some custom ruby scripts that work at startup to attach vol ids passed as user data) and
the perms/maj/min device numbers
look OK too (as one would expect from MAKEDEV).
Anything obvious I am missing?
tnx,
David
