Re: iomega 2TB external USB drive



Hi Celejar


I tried 'mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt' as /sda1 returned drive does not exist. Using 'tail -F /var/log/syslog' when I try the mount command using "/sdb1" returns -----

It shows a NTSF formatted omega drive. It states read only. This much I understand. I am taking a wild guess and thinking that it will show up a an external drive under 'wine' -- I could be totally wrong in that assumption.
All the rest is information lost on me!!!

I thank you for your assistance. My expertise is in hardware repair not software/command line issues so please bear with me.
