I had the same problem here in 5.4. Is this by chance an ext3
partition? If so, try fsck'ing it with fsck_ext2fs, then it should
mount ok. You can also try mount -f ... which may work. My partition
was also clean when I last used it in Linux. Either it's balking
because it's ext3, or there may be a bug causing it to detect it as
non-clean.
