I'm just curious. Have you tried mounting it from within disk utility? You might also open terminal and type mount just to see what all disks are mounted. Also, you might try mounting it with the mount command. For example, you could create a folder in finder to use as a mount point, make a short cut to it on your desk top, and type: mount -v /dev/disk1s1 /"path to mount point". Then try accessing it from the icon on the desktop. running mount with the -d option will run mount without actually doing anything. running it with the -t you can tel it what file system you are trying to mount. You can see all of the options by typing man mount.
I doubt that would work but if I was really determined, I might try it. It would only work if for some reason, leopard's auto mount feature wasn't working . I think it's really odd that you can access it in Linux but not in Leopard. I should also note that I'm not sure about allot of the device file names as they are different from Linux. I only reference /dev/disk1s1 because that is what is mounted on my macbook when I plug in a usb storage. ----- Original Message ----- From: "erik burggraaf" <e...@erik-burggraaf.com> To: <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> Sent: Thursday, July 16, 2009 12:44 PM Subject: Re: booksense > > Because it's broken.
