The external case holds an IDE disk, but the case has a USB interface. The disk has 2 partitions, one vfat, the other ext3. I am trying to mount ext3 one. I am trying to mount the disk as root, like this: # mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/colossus The error I am getting is: mount: /dev/sda1 is not a valid block device My /etc/fstab contains: /dev/sda1 /mnt/colossus ext3 defaults 0 0 I think I have all needed modules loaded: # lsmod | egrep 'sc|sd' sd_mod 13516 0 (autoclean) (unused) ide-scsi 12208 0 scsi_mod 107160 3 [sd_mod sr_mod ide-scsi] Does anyone see anything wrong or missing? Is there anything else I need to set up before this will work? Any help would be very very very much much much appreciated! Thank you.

various Linux kernels and distributions. Typing that string into your search engine of choice will yield a lot of results and possible solutions. The first recommendation was to check http://www.brianwsnyder.com/blog/2006/10/devsda1-is-not-valid-block-device.html to make sure the usb-storage and uhci modules are loaded (# lsmod); and they https://www.element14.com/community/thread/21093/l/unable-to-mount-usb-stick-on-rpi?displayFullThread=true were in my case. I even unloaded them and reloaded them (# modprobe -r module_name, # modprobe module_name) and still got the error. The next most common recommendation that I saw was this:# mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbdevnameThat didn't work for me this time. However, I did find a suggestion that did work. Plug in the device and error mounting then type:# fdisk -l(That's a lowercase "L") Now this isn't going to erase your hard drive or the data on your device. It will, however, tell you what disk partitions you have on your system, whether they are mounted or not.So, if you get the "/dev/sda1 is not a valid block device" error, plug the device in and type "fdisk -l." Then you should see something similar to this, along with information about is not a your hard drive partitions, which I did not copy here:Disk /dev/sdb: 1027 MB, 1027604480 bytes16 heads, 32 sectors/track, 3920 cylindersUnits = cylinders of 512 * 512 = 262144 bytesDevice Boot Start End Blocks Id System/dev/sdb1 * 1 3920 1003504 e W95 FAT16 (LBA)Then all you do, based on this example, is edit /etc/fstab and change /dev/sda1 to /dev/sdb1 and keep the options the same across the rest of that line. Then just mount like normally would:# mount /mnt/usbdeviceThat did the trick for me. But, try this at your own risk as I can't offer any guarantees! posted by bwsnyder @ 10:19 1 comments 1 Comments: At 12:05, Grzegorz said... THX! bwsnyder.I thougth, that I had camera on sda1, but I type fdisk -l and system show me, my camera on sdb1 :)Now is OK.Thank you for help.
