SOLVED: How to tell Ubuntu that I removed a hard drive?
Posted: Sun Jul 07, 2013 1:21 pm
A non-pooled hard drive failed on me (Ubuntu 12.04) last week. Thankfully, the data that I lost was replaceable so it's not that big a deal. The OS is on the healthy drive so I'm just using the single remaining drive to store everything for now. However, when I boot up I am informed that the drive isn't present and asked if I want to skip mounting it or try again. I tell it to skip and that's fine, but how do I inform Ubuntu that the drive is gone forever? This seems like it should be an easy question to Google but so far I've not been able to find the answer!
