Command failed: Invalid argument
THe problem here is that the device /dev/sda1 is already mounted.
However the erro rmessage is cryptic and doe snot suggest what is
the possible problem.
SUGGESTION
Offer better diagnostic message with possible cause. The code
can very well detect if the device is already mounted and suggest
unmounting it.
