Hi, I have a hard drive which does not work any more. It's a scsi hard drive over usb. I don't remember the numbers of partitions it had, but at least one which was crypted with cryptsetup.
Currently, the drive looks correctly recognized by the system, and it appears correctly in /dev/sdb. But it seems like no partition at all is recognized. Nothing appears in /dev/sdb*, and fdisk -l outputs nothing. Do you have any idea on what could possibly be wrong, and how I could debug this problem more ? Regards, arno dmesg output when connecting the drive: [334008.507212] usb 1-2: USB disconnect, address 4 [334297.396189] usb 1-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5 [334297.532165] usb 1-2: New USB device found, idVendor=04fc, idProduct=0c25 [334297.532183] usb 1-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=2, Product=3, SerialNumber=1 [334297.532196] usb 1-2: Product: USB to Serial-ATA bridge [334297.532206] usb 1-2: Manufacturer: Sunplus Technology Co.,Ltd.
