RE: USB disks

Try unplugging it, then type:

# tail -f /var/log/messages

Then plug it back in - you should see messages written to this file.

Nope. I just see the system disk.

Can you see the device with:

# fdisk -l

Subject: USB disks

I have a laCie auxiliary disk which has been working on a 2.4.21-53
RedHat system. The disk was accidently turned off during the
afternoon. Now I cannot get the device recognized by the system
again. The system can't open /dev/sdb.

I was able to mount the disk on a newer RedHat system, but I need to
get it working on the previous system.

What should I do next?
