Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users scsi sda device not mounting !! Post 58129 by zazzybob on Sunday 14th of November 2004 04:32:50 PM

I know you've probably already tried this, but going back to basics....

Make sure the thing is properly connected, then, as root, issue
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt

Now, assuming the mountpoint /mnt exists, the fs type "vfat" will be autodetected, and the thing should mount (read-only).

I've just tried this with a 128 USB keydrive and my digital camera, and the same procedure works for both, no messing.

Does the /dev/sda1 device exist (i.e. ls -l /dev/sda1)?

If this doesn't work, and it was working for you before, then I think we can assume that the USB device is either corrupt or just plain busted, especially seeing as how the device is also failing under Windows.

Cheers
