Title: USB Drive not mounting
Post by: girkers on January 25, 2009, 12:27:17 AM: Now that I have got my 750GB RAID up and running I want to make sure it is backed up (as highlighted by recent events here) but when I plug in my USB drive I check the message log and get this:

So when I go to try and setup the backup through the relevent panel it says there is no disk there. How do I get my drive mount so I can set up a backup.

My setup is standard SME 7.4 no extra contribs (currently).

Have you tired to disable apic in the grub.conf - you will find some reference to this procedure here:

Post by: girkers on January 25, 2009, 11:15:05 AM: I had looked up my APIC errors previously on the net and had added noacpi to my kernel parameters. It wasn't until I read through cactus' link that I realised that I had spelt the parameter incorrectly. I change the parameter to noapic, rebooted and was then able to set the backup.

Thanks for the help.
