Cannot mount drives and partitions--Solved

[Floydcat2]

Hmmm, not sure. It skips a line but there is no promt, indicator or anything. Just blank. After the skip is my username and dollar sign prompt. I'm glad that everything looks okay so far, but do you (or anyone) have any idea yet as to why I got the original error message in my first post?

Perhaps I should have mentioned that my hard drive is fairly new. When my old one died a couple of months ago, I used Macrium Reflect to image the old drive and then moved everything to my new one. But now all of that is gone (on my new drive) since I installed Linux Lite.

Thanks for your help so far.
