When I plug it in nothing happens. Trying to mount /dev/sda gives:

This is like mounting a CDROM with no CD in it.
Instead of sda, you should use dm-0 or dm-1.
I get:
mount /dev/dm-0 /mnt mount: /dev/dm-0: can't read superblock
So the device exists.
and:
mount /dev/dm-1 /mnt mount: special device /dev/dm-1 does not exist
_Not_?
*** How about /var/log/messages? What appears there _right_after_ plugging in the device?

(earlier email) fdisk tells you you've got
/dev/dm-0: 3150 MB
and
/dev/dm-1: 48.3 GB
This totals to about 52.4 GB. That's 1/5 of what you say the size is: 250 GB. That is *strange*. It should add up to about 250 GB.
*** Better take your time and sort things out! ;-)
BTW, is it this drive:
No, it doesn't look like that. But maybe the case has changed. . .
Cheers,
Leen
Could it be the hardware that's at fault? Cheers and thanks for trying. Steve. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
