I have a SANDISK usb stick that was formatted as FAT32 on a WIN-7 laptop. It previously has had other formats including at one point was a opensuse-13.2 install stick. In Leap 42.2 it mounts just fine. I plug it in and it is labeled SCANDISK I click on open with file manager and all is fine.
I have 2 42.3 systems where I plug it in and it says:
openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051 with 3 options.
I don't understand why it says the above. On a Leap 42.2 it says SANDISK.
I click open with file manager but it can't open. I'm sure that it is just something to do with the stick as I have other USB sticks that work just fine on 42.3. The stick is FAT32 with a volume label of SANDISK. I don't understand why this is happening and I really need this thing to work properly. Can anyone shed some light what might be changed on the stick for Leap 42.3 to treat it correctly?
you apparently "quick" formatted it and that only erases the file table and I believe replaces the label. read: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Live_USB_stick#How_to_recover_the_USB_stick_for_... -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
