I have a dual boot system (Win7-64, Open Suse).
This is the file system:

I when I wanted to map /dev/sda3 to /windows/D, I used partitioner under YAST to generate the entries in /etc/fstab
I chose /dev/sda3 to create the mapping to /windows/D. When I mounted /windows/D I found that /dev/sda2 had been mounted, because partitioner had written the wrong entry to fstab. It had written "-part2" instead of "-part3" (see below, the line is commented out and I changed the mapping to /windows/C.



My /etc/fstab:

# /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST9750423AS_5WS0M43Q-part2 /windows/C           ntfs-3g    users,gid=users,fmask=133,dmask=022,locale=en_GB.UTF-8 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST9750423AS_5WS0M43Q-part3 /windows/D           ntfs-3g    users,gid=users,fmask=133,dmask=022,locale=en_GB.UTF-8 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST9750423AS_5WS0M43Q-part8 /windows/E           vfat       users,gid=users,umask=0002,utf8=true 0 0

This is not a big bug - I was able to fix things by editing /etc/fstab - but it might offend inexperienced users.
