Title: Mount esata drive
Post by: ElFroggio on November 15, 2010, 11:41:11 PM

Hi,

How do I mount an esata drive on the system?

Further information:
SME automatically creates 2 entries:
/media/usbdisk
and
/media/usbdisk1

But these are not on the esata drive but on the /main-root. How do I mount it? Statically or dynamically.

Thanks

check first to see if its detected by the SME Server, you can do this by using "dmesg" or check the /var/log/messages at time of plugging the device in.  I've not had experience with an esata drive yet.

Thanks

dmesg gave me the answer:

Code: [Select]

mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usbdisk
Thanks
