Re: system is not recognizing / mounting 40GB USB storage de
It looks as if it is recognised to me, to make sure just run
with the device plugged in. Here is part of the output of mine:
My external disk is seen as sdb with partitions sdb1 and sdb3. You should see something similar. To mount it I would just open my file manager and click mount, but then I have a decent file manager, most people don't, so the other way to mount the first partition would be
Then open the /media directory in a file manager (even Nautilus should be able to do that ).
It is not usually necessary to specify the filesystem type in the mount command any more, the command is good enough to guess most file systems these days, but if you have some exotic filesystem type on it you can specify it with:
If you happen to be strange enough to format your external devices with minix file systems. See
For a list of all the filesystem types it understands.
Code: Select all
lsblk -l
with the device plugged in. Here is part of the output of mine:
Code: Select all
sdb 8:16 0 465.7G 0 disk
sdb1 8:17 0 415.6G 0 part
sdb3 8:19 0 50.2G 0 part
sr0 11:0 1 1024M 0 rom

sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media

Re: system is not recognizing / mounting 40GB USB storage de
I have no idea, I have never seen an error like that in my life, it looks like others have though, this bug reports the same behaviour (although in this case the capacity change occurs after ejecting the disk):detected capacity change from 40007630848 to 0

So far it has no solution though
As it is still an open bug report so I suggest you add your experience to it, the more people it affects the more likely it is to be addressed.
Re: system is not recognizing / mounting 40GB USB storage de
thanks for your suggestion and time to revert to revert over same ...much appreciated ... i looked link shared and agree with you it talk about different solution...
over week end i will do some effort (search options only to find if any clue as solution) to be confident enough before i open Bug request and comply as per need .... to be ticket is open for this form for any one to contribute further to find/share solution like issue i am facing
