Anyone else experience this?

Yes, except it wasn't another partition on the same drive but another drive altogether. The other drive would not even mount! I could not even "see" the other drive in Disk Utility! Interestingly I did not notice this in the Yosemite beta. It may have occurred in Yosemite beta 4 or 5 and I just did not notice it, but it did cause a minute or two of panic on my part after installing the release version.


If we knew what it was we were doing, it wouldn't be called research, would it?
