I have a zaapa usb external drive.
You didn't say if this drive is new and unused or already used by an other computer (for example XP)?
expected it would. Running evmsgui
I don't know about evmsgui, so I suspect you have a special configuration anywhere..
fdisk -l

Disk /dev/dm-0: 3150 MB,
this, again, I don't know of. 3150 MB, so 3.1 Gb sort of usb key?? probably better unplug it during the tests, just in case :-)
Disk /dev/dm-1: 48.3 GB, 48323520000 bytes
is your external usb drive 50Gb large? is yes, then you have got it. it's not formatted. or may be, there is only one /dev/dm drive with partition 0 and 1, so the two drives I spoke of are only one, 50GiB drives?? the first thing I would like to know before formatting is what is this "dm" disk type? looks like this: http://oss.gonicus.de/openpower/index.php/Dm-multipath-vscsi but here I have no knowledge to help you :-( jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/mediawiki/index.php/GPS_Lowrance_GO -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
