lrwxr-xr-x 1 emmajane root 26 Jun 20 00:27 ipod -> /var/autofs/removable/ipod smeagol:/home/emmajane# mount -t vfat /dev/sda2 /mnt/ipod mount: mount point /mnt/ipod is a symbolic link to nowhere And if I try creating a fresh directory I get: smeagol:/mnt 17:19:49 $ sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sda2 /mnt/ipod2 mount: special device /dev/sda2 does not exist The last time I booted the iPod was actually spinning up and spinning down when I popped it into the cradle. This time it isn't -- although I'm pretty sure I didn't change anything. When I unplug the iPod my computer knows that it's been unplugged. >From dmesg: ieee1394: Node changed: 0-01:1023 -> 0-00:1023 ieee1394: Node suspended: ID:BUS[0-00:1023] GUID[000a27000266158c] ieee1394: Node changed: 0-00:1023 -> 0-01:1023 ieee1394: Node resumed: ID:BUS[0-01:1023] GUID[000a27000266158c] ieee1394: The root node is not cycle master capable; selecting a new root node and resetting... ieee1394: Node changed: 0-01:1023 -> 0-00:1023 ieee1394: Node changed: 0-00:1023 -> 0-01:1023 scsi7 : SCSI emulation for IEEE-1394 SBP-2 Devices ieee1394: sbp2: Error logging into SBP-2 device - login timed-out sbp2: probe of 000a27000266158c-0 failed with error -16 After unplugging: ieee1394: Node changed: 0-01:1023 -> 0-00:1023 ieee1394: Node suspended: ID:BUS[0-00:1023] GUID[000a27000266158c] I'll try rebooting again to see if it makes a difference. thanks again, emma -- Emma Jane Hogbin [[ 416 417 2868 ][ www.xtrinsic.com ]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
