mounting external XFS HDD
I'm try to mount my external HDD with XFS but i got error:
Code:
mount_xfs /dev/sd0a /mnt/flashdrive/ mount_xfs: Device not configured Code:
umass0 detached umass0 at uhub0 port 3 configuration 1 interface 0 "JMicron USB to ATA/ATAPI Bridge" rev 2.00/1.00 addr 2 umass0: using SCSI over Bulk-Only scsibus1 at umass0: 2 targets, initiator 0 sd0 at scsibus1 targ 1 lun 0: <SAMSUNG, J1TL415479, 0-12> SCSI2 0/direct fixed sd0: 286168MB, 36481 cyl, 255 head, 63 sec, 512 bytes/sec, 586072368 sec total What are I'm doing wrong Thanks in advance |

I see two problems, the second is just me over-analyzing.
1) mount_xfs(8) is not for SGI's XFS file system: Quote:

Here's what works for me to mount a flash drive:
sudo mount -t msdos /dev/sd0i /mnt
that's it. if you have more than one scuzzi and this doesn't work, try sd1i, sd2i, sd3i etc. depends on the number of scsi's. |

Not necessarily. If nine other FFS partitions exist on the disk, then the first foreign filesystem will be lettered "j". The definitive answer is to check the output of disklabel(8) to find the exact partition letter.

Some may wonder why "i" is typically seen as the partition of MS-DOS partitions. Disks can only identify sixteen partitions, & "i" is the mid-way between the end-points "a" & "p". |

This is a horribly outdated post made a few years back, no doubt by a user who is long gone.
Why are you reviving it Bill? especially with information that is generally known and/or mentioned in the FAQ? Heck, even my response to him is outdated, mount_xfs was renamed mount_nnpfs as few releases ago. |
