Re: cant mount usb disk



the problem seems that maybe the OS cant support ext3 filesystem.
but when i cat /proc/filesystem
it display
...
nodev ext3
...

That means your kernel supports ext3 (but you can mount an ext3-volume as
ext2, too).

i dont dont why?

Try using fdisk like e.g.

fdisk /dev/scsi/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/disc

and inside fdisk you simply do "p" (print). Then you'll see the existing
partitions and can try to mount these specifically, like e.g.

mount /dev/scsi/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /mnt/usb

Hope this helps,
Sebastian
