Interesting mount problem :s

Yesterday I've realized some of my MP3s are missing. They are on a NTFS partition which is mounted by ntfs-3g - written in fstab. I switched to Windows to check whether they're really missing or not, it turned out to be not. They appeared on iTunes and nothing was wrong with them. I switched to Arch again, and they didnt appear again. So I've unmounted that partition and mounted again, then my missing files are back. But when I restarted system, again they become missing. What to do now?

Here is my fstab file;

/dev/sda5 is the partition.

# 
# /etc/fstab: static file system information

Re: Interesting mount problem :s

Get rid of those triple entries in fstab and see if you can find any hints in dmesg.

You meant these lines as triple etries, didnt you? I have erased them, and took a look at dmesg, I think the lines those I've wrote below are the only ones related to.

Comment this lines. HAL does have auto detection, this setup might rise problems. And use a file manager which can communicate with HAL.
