I have a firewire drive that I used for backup in 9.0. Now in 9.1 I get this error: Could not enter folder /media/ieee1394_sbp2-00d04b35e0022046-0-0p4
Anyone know how to enter the folder or what commands to use to find out how? Anyone know why a name like 'ieee1394_sbp2-00d04b35e0022046-0-0p4' is necessay?
Hi Jerome, message off-list - did you ever solve this? I'm getting the same thing ...
Thanks for any input Best Fergus
Thanks, Jerome
Hi Fergus, No help here. For now I'm backing up to a spare internal hardrive. Sorry, Jerome
Hi Jerome, thanks a lot for getting back!
It was annoying to find this backward step in 9.1.
I booted mine with the firewire drive in place, and found that while i did get your error, I could in fact mount it as root using mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt (sdd because there are 3 others). So I could then use it normally. Not wonderful, but a partial answer ...

Hi Fergus, I'm not having any luck here. Here are some of the responses I get from the system as root: # mount /dev/sbp2 /mnt/backup mount: special device /dev/sbp2 does not exist # mount /media/ieee1394_sbp2-00d04b35e0022046-0-0p1 /mnt/backup mount: /media/ieee1394_sbp2-00d04b35e0022046-0-0p1 is not a block device # mount /media/ieee1394_sbp2 /mnt/backup mount: special device /media/ieee1394_sbp2 does not exist # mount /media/sbp2 /mnt/backup mount: special device /media/sbp2 does not exist # mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/backup mount: /dev/sdd1 is not a valid block device # mount /dev/sdd0 /mnt/backup mount: special device /dev/sdd0 does not exist # mount /dev/sdd2 /mnt/backup mount: /dev/sdd2 is not a valid block device # mount /dev/sdd3 /mnt/backup mount: /dev/sdd3 is not a valid block device I didn't reboot though. I'm going to login as root and see what that does. Jerome
