Operating Systems Solaris How to mount a firewire drive? Post 302410236 by Breanne on Monday 5th of April 2010 11:19:34 AM

Hi, thanks for helping.

When I type "rmformat" I get:

Looking for devices...
 1. Volmgt Node: /vol/dev/aliases/cdrom0
 Logical Node: /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s2
 Physical Node: /pci@0,0/pci-ide@1f,1/ide@1/sd@0,0

 Connected Device: ST312002 6A 8.54
 Device Type: <Unknown>

It seems to list the external drive twice but I don't know why; nothing else is connected. But sometimes it just lists it once.

When I type "iostat -En" I get:

And when I type "mount -F pcfs/dev/dsk/c6t0d0s0:c /mnt" (or with c6t0d0s2) I get:

mount: I/O error

I tried it with both volm on and off.
I'm quite new to Solaris so I don't know what any of this means.
