I'm in a bit of situation here:



I have linux mint 17, and on boot it says Press S to skip mounting or M for manual Recovery. So I press S



and when I try to login with my username blue it says




Your home directory is listed as: '/home/blue' but it does not appear to exist.




I logged in using ctrl+alt+f1 and using root. I mounted /dev/sda7 in /mnt/sda7 to check if my files exist - they are. Inside /mnt/sda7 there are 2 folders: blue and lost+found.



The blue folder is my home folder with all my stuff.



So: how exactly should I mount sda7 in order to fix the situation and how to make it persist rebooting? What is the exact mount command?



Thanks




mount

    You probably need to run a fsck manually while the drive is not mounted.

Was there a message before your "Press S to skip mounting or M for manual Recovery" message explaining why you're being prompted? My guess is disk corruption. Try unmounting /mnt/sda7 and then doing fsck /dev/sda7 to check your disk for errors. You can try to mount your filesystems using the sudo mount -a command

  • I added /dev/sda7 to fstab and then mount -a.

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
