Ubuntu and truecrypt

[Stubbs]

I have a flash drive installation of ubuntu, and now, when I try to mount a truecrypt drive, I get the following error message:

According to mtab, truecrypt is already mounted on /tmp/.truecrypt/aux/mnt1.

I badly need to edit mtab.

This is on Ubuntu 10.04.

The drive is not listed in fstab, so no help there.

Rebooting is of no help. I have read that you aren't supposed to edit mtab, because it is created from fstab. Obviously this is not the case in my situation.

Please help!

Stubbs.

Hi and Welcome !

Have you checked /tmp/.truecrypt/aux/mnt1 folder? Is there anything in it?

Post the output of sudo fdisk -l and df -h commands here.
