First, as root, try fdisk -l to show what drives and partitions are available.

I can't see your computer from here. Please post the output of fdisk -l to show what drives and partitions are available, with the device plugged in of course.

Also, please post the output of dmesg | tail in case there's anything going wrong on the driver level.

Thanks for nothing, you mean? I know I didn't have many suggestions, my answers depended on diagnostic information from you.

How did you solve it?
