Fedora Hardware :: Can't Mount Device - Kingston USB Not Found

Jul 27, 2011

Fedora 14 is used throughout the whole problem. The problem started when I wanted to install Fedora 15 DVD by making a bootable USB key. The size of the USB stick is 8 GB. The problem happened when I (following the tutorial) wrote the line [URL]... livecd-iso-to-disk command associated with the path to the ISO DVD and the partition on the USB stick. the USB stick has the device name /dev/sdb , 1 partition sdb1.

I then noticed that it was mentioned to unmount the USB drive before doing this command. so, while the terminal had written in it "Checking" , I pressed CTRL+C to stop the execution and then pressed on the arrow beside the device in the computer window (Which I think that it unmounts the device). The actual problem started here. I then tried to mount the device but couldn't, It said the device was not found. so I removed the drive and inserted it again, the OS didn't automount the USB drive, I tried to manually mount it but it said the device is not found or doesn't exist. then I used fdisk -l, It said that the sdb didn't have a valid partition table. Also the size of the device is wrongly reported. It should be 8 GB but it is reported to be 2 TB?!

[code]....

I think the wrong partition table made it think that it has a certain number of sectors which isn't real,that made it think that the device is 2 TB large....

Fedora Installation :: 14 - No Bootable Device Found?

Nov 10, 2010

I am trying to install fedora 14 from live CD (USB boot) in my system which already has Windows 7. The installation goes fine however when I reboot the system I get 'No bootble device found' error. install fedora on the entire hard disk which I cannot do right now.

In Bios there are 'Native' and 'Legacy' options for 'ATA/IDE Mode' and if I select 'Native', 'Configure SATA as' option is enabled with options 'AHCI' and 'IDE'. I reinstalled fedora with all possible configuration, Legacy mode, Native + AHCI, Native + IDE but got the same error when booting. I have also tried options; MBR on /dev/sda and first boot record on /dev/sda5.

fdisk -l :
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 2048 78782463 39390208 5 Extended
/dev/sda2 78782760 211897349 66557295 7 HPFS/NTFS

Fedora Hardware :: Kingston 2GB Flash Drive Not Working?

Dec 20, 2010

I am running a 32-bit Fedora 11 OS (in GNOME).

My 2GB Kingston Flash Drive is plugged into my hp pavilion dv6000; the light on the flash drive is on but there is no icon on my desktop, and it is also missing from the 'Places' tab.

After typing fdisk -l I receive the following message:

Disk /dev/sda: 120.0 GB, 120034123776 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 14593 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x000d7c32

[Code]...

I've plugged in the drive to different USB slots to no avail. I also plugged in my e-reader to see if my USB slots were malfunctioning, but the e-reader was detected by Fedora.

I have plugged the thumb drive into my Windows 7 Desktop PC with the hope of the OS recognizing the drive, but the result is the same as in my laptop.

Fedora Installation :: F12 Upgrade - Boot Failure / No Root Device Found

Jun 1, 2010

I'm a long time Linux user. Finally got around to upgrading my Fedora 11 system to Fedora 12 by using the 'preupgrade' tool. The upgrade appeared to go well (downloaded packages, rebooted into installer, etc). However, now that the upgrade is complete, I'm unable to boot my system.

Here's my configuration:
/dev/sda (80Gb)
200Mb /boot partition (ext3)
52Gb / partition (ext4 - managed as logical volume)
2Gb swap partition (managed as logical volume)
20Gb /spare partition (ext3 - managed as logical volume) .....

All worked fine under Fedora 11 for the last few months. Grub now presents me with 'Fedora' and 'Windows XP' boot options. The /boot/grub/menu.lst file is essentially the same as it was for Fedora 11, except for the different kernel versions, etc. The boot sequence shows the Fedora bubble (??) and gets about 80% full when the screen goes black and the message displayed is:

No root device found
Boot has failed, sleeping forever
If I boot Windows, all works fine.

Am able to boot using a SystemRescueCD disk. The disks all look okay and I can mount/modify all partitions, etc. The grub menu.lst file read as follows (sorry, typed in, not copied):
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title Fedora (2.6.32.11-99.fc12.i686.PAE)
root (hd0,0) .....

Fedora Installation :: Install Ok - But Boot Failed - No Root Device Found

Nov 21, 2010

I have 2 Debian OS's and wanted to put Fedora next to it.

Install went ok, but after rebooting it says: "No root device found. Boot has failed, sleeping forever."

During install from the live CD I didn't "v" the boot (efi or something?) because I thought Grub would take care of everything.

Should I just reinstall again and choose the Fedora bootloader? Won't it mess up Grub?

Software :: Fedora 10 Hot-plug Or Otherwise Mount A USB Device

Feb 15, 2010

I want to use a USB "stick" or "pen drive" or whatever you call it to carry files elsewhere.

Nothing appears in "places" after I plug it in.

I am comfortable with the shell. That is not a problem. In Fedora 6, it would appear in /dev/mount or something--I forgot. With Fedora 10, I have no idea where to look.

Fedora :: XFS Mount Failed - Device Or Resource Busy

Sep 8, 2011

After upgrading to fedora 15, I have problems mounting XFS filesystem.

The short tale:
Code:
08:01:38 localhost root>mount -t xfs -vv /dev/sdb1 /data/disks/old
mount: /dev/sdb1 already mounted or /data/disks/old busy
08:01:39 localhost root>fuser /data/disks/old
08:01:41 localhost root>lsof /data/disks/old
08:01:44 localhost root>xfs_repair -t 1 /dev/sdb1
xfs_repair: cannot open /dev/sdb1: Device or resource busy
08:01:48 localhost root>fuser -mu /dev/sdb1
08:02:08 localhost root>dmesg | tail -n 5
[1655779.759764] SGI XFS Quota Management subsystem
[1659275.905756] SGI XFS with ACLs, security attributes, large block/inode numbers, no debug enabled
[1659275.908745] SGI XFS Quota Management subsystem
[1659389.154986] SGI XFS with ACLs, security attributes, large block/inode numbers, no debug enabled
[1659389.156519] SGI XFS Quota Management subsystem

Device is not mounted, and directory is not in use, it has just been created. There is nothing in log files that could remotely point the cause. After removing device (echo 1 > /sys/block/sdb/device/delete) and reattaching it, disk started working.

Ubuntu Installation :: With NVIDIA 310M Graphics Card Drivers (310M) On A Dell Vostro 3300 - Errors "no Device Found - No Screens Found"

Oct 28, 2010

I have a Dell Vostro 3300, i5 460 processor with a NVIDIA 310M Graphics Card. I'm doing a KUBUNTU 10.10 (Maverick) install with the following results. The Live CD boots just fine to, "TEST," or "Install." Installation goes fine. However, the graphics card being used is the Intel i915. I have tried installing the NVIDIA drivers directly from the, "Additional Drivers," tool and after the reboot I get through the boot screen to the console. I try to manually startx and I get the errors, "no device found," "no screens found." The second install I tried purging and blacklisting the nouveau drivers and entering safe mode. Then using apt-get install nvidia-current. After that, nvidia-xconfig. Same results.

The third attempt I re-installed and this time downloaded the drivers from the Nvidia site (version 256.53). Blacklisted nouveau, remove all nvidia, updated initramfs, etc. The install went fine however I still end up at a console after boot with the same messages as above. No device found, no screens found. I've tried searching through the forum and web and have tried things like adding the modset option along with many other hacks, tips and fixes. still, no go.I can live with the Intel graphics for now although I lose 512MB of memory. Unfortunately there is no way to disable or change this set-up in the BIOS. I've seen quite a few bug reports at Launchpad:

1. Is this something I should just wait til a fix comes? Will a fix come?
2. Is there, or will there be an official Updated Ubuntu Guide for Maverick to install NVIDIA drivers with this tecnology?
3. Lastly, is there anything else I should try??

Debian Multimedia :: Can't Configure X-Server - Errors "device Not Found" And "no Screens Found"

Apr 15, 2011

I installed debian 4.0 (etch) on an old computer with some pickled graphics card in it, and then I upgraded the computer to one with slightly newer hardware only without the graphics card (the new one used on board graphics). I moved the hard drive from the old one to the new one but when I booted it up it failed to start the X-server and I got some errors listed for "device not found" and "no screens found".

I tried using "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" however I can't seem to find a working configuration. It seems pretty silly that when installing debian it can detect all this automatically with no problems but when it comes to changing some hardware around you are left in the dark with a complicated re-configuration process. Is there not some way to automate this? I'd rather not have to re-install everything

Ubuntu :: Can't Scan In 9.04 / No Device Is Found

Jan 26, 2010

I just bought an hp 6500 wireless printer, and after taking 5 minutes to set it up (amazing how easy it is to get hardware working that supported by Linux) I was happily printing...But- I haven't managed to get it to scan from my desktop pc running 9.04. Tells me no device is found. I added the printer to a laptop running 9.10, and it scanned perfectly straight away...

I've been through the Ubuntu help documentation and haven't found a solution.I think that maybe Turbo Print (for our old Canon printer) might have messed something up. I had to uninstall Turbo Print to get the printer to work (it hijacked Ubuntu's built in printing stuff).
