Mount points and disk drives not visible

English Hardware
1

Since I installed 11.3 I have noticed the /srv and /local mount points are empty!
I also can no longer see my hard drives that have no mount points. I couldn’t mount any hot plug media either but now have that fixed. I won’t go into the mess I have with my video card and getting the x server started…
Can anyone point me in the right direction to go with the mount points? I did have Xampp installed to /srv/www but don’t even know where it is now!

I had no problems with this in 11.1 until a month ago when I updated and it seemed to keep losing the permissions for these drives as once I accessed them via Dolphin they would be accessible. Now they are not even visible in a file manager!

OK forget about the mount points. I mounted one drive to /srv and then umounted and bingo the ftp tomcat and www directories were there. Local is still empty but then I don’t recall using that anyways.
If someone can get my other partitions to appear I’d be most grateful. Theres the old SLED 10 partition around 10 G on sda6, 20 G on sd7 and 31 G on sdb3.

You’ll need to make fstab entries for them
There are some issues here, also 11.2 has same - see: Unable to mount internal partitions with Dolphin

So for example as su do: mkdir /STORE (or whatever)

Then say this:

/dev/sdb2 /STORE ntfs-3g defaults 0 0
