General :: Unable To 'mount' And Use Itouch 8Gig Device / Fix It?
Jan 7, 2010
What do I call this device in /etc/fstab. Currently the line I'm using is... code...
Having made a mount directory (/media/ipod) an error message tells me
... mount: special device /dev/sdc0 does not exist...
when I try to mount it.
I cannot see it in 'gparted' or 'disk utility' but I can see it on sys log and kern log when I plug it in and remove it.
I have visited several help forums and loaded several types of recommended software (ifuse-libs and mux's etc) but with no satisfactory result.
I have successfully 'Jail broken' the device using 'Blackra1n' on a windows machine.
It used to appear on the desktop but alas...no more. I've obviously broken something!

Debian Lenny, kernel 2.6.26-2-686 I'm trying to manually mount my digital camera. Picasa recognizes the device and imports pictures. However, I'd like to access my device manually as there are small video files I'd like to retrieve. It's for a fujifilm Z33 WP digicam.
Code:
$ lsusb
Bus 005 Device 010: ID 04cb:01f5 Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd
Bus 005 Device 004: ID 046d:c012 Logitech, Inc. Mouseman Dual Optical
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 413c:0058 Dell Computer Corp. Port Replicator
[code]....
In Picasa...where it says "Select Device", it finds
Code:
USB PTP Class Camera@usb:
and
Code:
USB PTP Class Camera@usb:005,010
selecting either one of them can access the camera directly. How can I pinpoint my device and mount it using the regular mount /mnt/point/ /path/to/my/cam?

Unable to mount floppy0 Mount: block device /dev/fd0 is write protected, mounting read-only Mount: could not determine the file system type, and none was specified

I just compiled my first own kernel (I'm using Arch Linux), following the tutorial on the german site. Now I tried to boot it, I ended up failing with this message: Code: Waiting 10 seconds for device /dev/sda1 ... Root device '/dev/sda1' doesn't exist, Attempting to create it. ERROR: Unable to determine major/minor number of root device '/dev/sda1' Here is the important part of my menu.lst:
[Code]....
I simply copy&pasted the Arch-entry, i.e. I also had the disk by uuid there. The failure message was the same, just the root device name was the different name Also, at first I did not have the initrd line in my menu.lst (as written in my tutorial that I may not need it). In this case I had this error message:

I am trying to set up my usb device to be available to mount and umount only for me, not for other users. Using Slackware 12.2Entry in fstab is as follows:
Code:

I have a Corsair R60 ssd disk which is a disk with both sata and usb connectors. But the usb thing seems to be a bit non-standard, or maybe its just my fedora linux.When I insert the disk using a usb cabel to a running Fedora 14 linux system, a device called /dev/sg3 is added but that is all. No new /dev/sd* device is created so I can't mount the disk.
If I look at
cat /proc/scsi/sg/device_strs
I get
ATA Hitachi HTS54321 FB2O
HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T50N RP05
Seagate Desktop 0130
Corsair CSSD-R60GB2
So the disk is there. (The last entry) but my linux will for some reason not see it as a usb hard disk. When I insert other usb disks they work fine. It is only this specific disk which causes problems. I have tried on 3 different computers with the same result.
A hint to the problem may be that if I add the disk to a windows system(With usb) the disk is called "A fixed disk" and not a portable disk as expected. The disk works fine with linux If i connect it with the sata cabel, but I would really like to have it working with usb too. (To mount it on computers without sata).
Added:I did try to mount /dev/sg3 but mount say that its not a block device. (File say Its a character special device).
Added output from dmesg:
[ 97.454073] usb 7-1: USB disconnect, address 2
[ 105.913055] hub 2-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 3
[ 107.048054] usb 2-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5
[ 107.162900] usb 2-3: New USB device found, idVendor=1b1c, idProduct=1ab8
[code]....
I found an other guy with exactly the same problem [URL] so I think its beginning to look like a bug in the drives firmware or in the linux kernel.
Final update:Corsair have said that the disk design is broken and there does not seem to be any way to make it work.

[root@servers guest]# /bin/mount -o -uid=root,gid=root,username=userid,password=user1passwd //172.16.1.212/backup/user1backup /mnt/tmp
retrying with upper case share name
mount error 6 = No such device or address
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)

I also tried:
[root@servers guest]# /bin/mount -t cifs -o -uid=root,gid=root,username=user1,password=user1pass //172.16.1.212/backup/user1backup /mnt/tmp
but no luck!

I am developing a device that will run Linux as its operating system.The device is a small form factor X86 device with a flash drive exposed as a SATA-device. So it is not very dissimilar from any other PC running Linux.For several good reasons I am building my own "distribution", instead of using an existing one.What confuses me is how mount/umount of the root file system is handled.I boot my kernel with the commandline "root=/dev/sda1 rw" which works fine. But everytime I do poweroff or reboot Busybox complained about no /etc/fstab, so I decided to build one.Should I have an entry for my root file system? It seems like this is shadowed by the rootfs anyway. I.e. if I have the fstab entry "/dev/sda1 / ext2 1 1" mount still reports rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)/dev/root on / type ext2 (rw,relatime,errors=continue)My questions are:Do I need to worry? Will the drive be correctly unmounted by the kernel on poweroff/reboot?If I want to perform file system checking on boot, can I do that without resorting to an initrd?

I have a program which mounts /dev/sdb1 for which I lack the source code. This device does not exist on my RedHat 9 system and I want to create /dev/sdb1 such that it's an alias for /dev/hdb1 Can I do this? with MAKEDEV?
I need to have an alias which will allow it to mount, not create a symbolic link to an already mounted directory. i.e. 'mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/harddrive' should actually mount /dev/hdb1

I'm using an external USB drive to perform system backups. The script I'm using has a mount command - mount /dev/sdcx /systembak, it works fine until the external drive is mounted into a different USB port which causes the device path to change and the script needs to be modified to reflect that change. Looking in the /dev/disk/ directory I see ./by-id ./by-label ./by-path ./by-uuid. I've been able to mount the disk using one of the device pointers in those directories; are any of those device pointers static or do they change every time the USB disk is plugged into a different USB port.
OS: RHEL/CentOS

I am trying to install ubuntu 10.04 via an 8gig USB drive. I have no idea where to start or what to do when I do. I'm completely new to linux, and BTW I'm open to any suggestions on other distros. I'm using a 14 year old compaq and XP is just too much for it. Is there a program I can use to download and install it all in one or what. I have 10.04 downloaded but my computer is trying to use roxio CD creator 5 to do whatever it's doing.

I have tried googling this thing but returns didn't fit my needed answers while I have very limited time staying on-line, so I try to solicit help here from those who have gone this way before.
My Need:
1. I need to boot and run Slackware 12.2 from an 8gig USB pendrive. <Regardless from where I install them: I can install and prefer to isntall it from a DVD/cdrom drive. But booting my Slackware DVD installer cannot see the USB pendrive which fdisk -l returns as 'sdb1-ext2, sdb2-ext2 and sdb3-swap' after falling into the console mode.>
2. I partition my usb-stick into 1.2Gig to mount as / then 5Gig to mount as /home and about 200+Mbs for swap. Things I have tried--
a) I have run Ubuntu 8 on a pendrive by a very simple way of doing it. There are links for that. But I don't like Ubuntu where it uses vfat on a casper drive, and also I cannot control the system the way I used to in Slackware. I deleted it.
b) I tried booting my Slackware 12.2 DVD installer but there is no way to find my usb drive when preparation phase came. I need a little help. I have lesser time now for tinkering things, being busy in my job.
What would I do to attain my objective quicker than being a scientist-experimenting-things? Is there a link for a fitting solution so that I can go and read from there?

I have one hard disk (call her HDA) that contains nothing but a single ext4 partition containing a backup of all my important data. Last night I did a clean install of Ubuntu 10.10 on my primary hard disk (call her HDB) and from there proceeded to upgrade directly to Ubuntu 11.04 upgrade. In 10.10, I was able to read HDA just fine. However after the upgrade, I can no longer mount this drive. When mounting from file browser:
Code:
Error mounting: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda,missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so The end of dmesg said the following:
Code:
dmesg | tail
[ 82.130904] EXT4-fs (sda): bad geometry: block count 122096646 exceeds size of device (122096381 blocks)
my hard disk has a block count greater than the size of my device. I've done my background searching on this and tried a command line utility I've never heard of before:
Code:
# sudo e2fsck /dev/sda
e2fsck 1.41.14 (22-Dec-2010)
The filesystem size (according to the superblock) is 122096646 blocks
The physical size of the device is 122096381 blocks
[code]....
this is as far as I've gotten. This drive holds over a decade's worth of work for me and is extremely valuable. I really didn't think that the Ubuntu upgrade process would mess with this drive, seeing as the Ubuntu install was contained on an entirely different drive. What is it that I need to do to restore my drive to working status?

I use Unity 11.04 on a 64-bit machine with 8Gig and a TB hard drive, so resources shouldn't be a problem. The pane on the left hand side (showing my computer main folders has disappeared when I click on "Home Folder". So has the ability to have two panels. I can see the hole folders but not any of the extra folders (dragged folders or usb sticks).
I now use Krusader which solves most of my problems. However there is a folder of files I use a lot, so before I lost this ability I had draged the folder to the left hand column showing all my folders. Now I can't access the folder I had dragged to the left hand panel, and it seems to have disappeared from its original place.

Normally, when ever I have an issue with ubuntu (which, for me, is often; I'm quite new), theres generally an error message to google, but such is not the case this time. So, I finally got my itouch to sync with gtkpod, but I accidentally messed up the process and didn't do the first sync properly, which meant the Firewire GUID wasn't properly set up, which then means every time I try to add music, it takes up space, but isn't recognized by the device. Well, I ended up find out and fixing the problem, but now my ipod has about 1g of music on it that is not recognized by my ipod, and thus, very hard to find and delete. Is there a way to get my space back, without formatting the itouch?

This is some really weird issue. Whenever I plug in the iTouch, it plays that one connection sound twice, pretty close to eachother. The first time, on Rhythmbox, it shows up the iTouch. On the second tone, which is the same tone, it disappears. What's up with this?
