Hello list,
I just bought a "brand new used" iBook2 ;). Unfortunately its wonderful 30GB
IBM HDD is slowly dying (I/O errors, can't recover journal from time to
time) so I had to remove it and put the original 10GB back on the machine.
The problem is I forgot to migrate some data from the 30GB to the 10GB. "No
problem" - I tought - "I'm going to use an external firewire case, mount the
disk as /dev/sda and backup the missing data".
That's the point where my problem comes in: apparently there's a limit on
the number of scsi devices (from 1 to 15, to be precise) so I end up being
unable to mount /dev/sda16 (was /dev/hda16, mounted as /tmp, doesn't matter)
and /dev/sda17 (my old /dev/hda17, mounted as /home and _that matters_).
Do you have any idea for a workaround? Thanks in advance.
Stefano
P.S.: mac-fdisk "sees" /dev/sda16 and /dev/sda17 perfectly and I have no
problems mounting /dev/hda12, /dev/hda14 and /dev/hda15 (/dev/hda13 was
swap)
