Jim Douglas has been having trouble with his USB drive. > .....rebooting show this in the log file, not sure which device to mount? > Whey does it have 4 when there's only 1 drive? > > sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sda > sd 0:0:0:1: Attached scsi removable disk sdb > sd 0:0:0:2: Attached scsi removable disk sdc > sd 0:0:0:3: Attached scsi removable disk sdd > EXT3 FS on hda3, internal journal > Vendor: IOI Model: MediaBay 7 in 4 Rev: 1.00 > Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 00 > Vendor: IOI Model: MediaBay 7 in 4 Rev: 1.01 > Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 00 > Vendor: IOI Model: MediaBay 7 in 4 Rev: 1.02 > Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 00 > Vendor: IOI Model: MediaBay 7 in 4 Rev: 1.03 > Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 00 Erm -- this looks like it's a device to mount different sorts of media (CompactFlash, SD, etc.) Is it anything like this: http://www.mymediagear.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=59&products_id=83&osCsid=149acb156b1648c54fd0308416589877 In which case, it probably has four slots for the different media types, and these show up as different devices in Linux. Which one you use would depend on what sort of media you were trying to read -- all I can suggest is trial and error. > mkdir usbhd in /media > > then, > > mount -t ext3 /dev/sda /media/usbhd > > is says, > mount:No medium found Try for sdb, sdc and sdd. Try fdisk -l /dev/sdx in case the medium comes with a partition table. Good luck!
