Ubuntu 10.10 USB drive not showing
USB is detecting but not showing the drives or mount details.
Nothing there inside my /media folder and /mnt folder.
I already enabled automatic mount and give privilege to user also.
My sudo fdisk -l shows like:
Disk /dev/sda: 250.1 GB, 250059350016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x000d3ba7
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 29637 238053376 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 29637 30402 6142977 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 29637 30402 6142976 82 Linux swap / Solaris
Any idea?

The question is too general. You should elaborate on the problem - explain exactly what happens when you do xyz.

are you sure that this is all that appears fromsudo fdisk -l? try connecting the drive then typesudo fdisk -l, wait untill you see the "$" sign again. It may take more than 5 minutes. ... I also want you to do something else... open a terminal, typels /dev/ | grep sdthen connect the drive then wait about 10 seconds then typels /dev/ | grep sdagain and post the results.

Could you check the contents of /media? Also start a terminal session and type in the following:
tail -f /var/log/syslog
Then insert a USB key. In the output that is displayed you'll see a line like this hopefully:
Mar 26 11:43:45 dt-ca-its-linux01 kernel: [11512.782402] sdb: sdb1
The /media directory now also shows this:
user@linux01:/media$ ls
5F07-50A5 <- This is the USB key.
Let us know if any of this shows up and then we'll work on the issues from there.
