I am trying to mount a file system that can not be reformatted or repartitioned, else the necessary files on it would be destroyed with it (I am using a digital music device which has proprietary software necessary for its use). I am getting errors when connecting the device. *Here is my usbdevs -v:* Controller /dev/usb0: addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, OHCI root hub(0x0000), nVidia(0x000$ port 1 addr 2: full speed, power 90 mA, config 1, Dell USB Keyboard Hub(0x1002$ port 1 addr 3: full speed, self powered, config 1, Dell USB Keyboard Hub(0x20$ port 2 powered port 3 powered port 2 powered port 3 addr 4: full speed, power 500 mA, config 1, ?umark HDX(0x0001), ?umark.$ port 4 powered Controller /dev/usb1: addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, OHCI root hub(0x0000), nVidia(0x000$ port 1 powered port 2 powered *here is my dmesg:* da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: <Numark HDX 0000> Removable Direct Access SCSI-4 device da0: 1.000MB/s transfers da0: 75294MB (154202833 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 9598C) umass0: BBB reset failed, STALLED umass0: BBB reset failed, STALLED On top of all this, the drive, when located in /dev/ is da0, but there's no partitions on it, making me very confused as to how to be able to put files onto this drive! I try mount_msdosfs (because i believe it is a dos file system as per some clue i got trying to mount it, but i can't remember where... and it just hangs until i turn off the device. Can anyone help or at least point me in the right direction? Is there something i'm missing or is there a tool I can use? Perhaps mounting it as a raw disk? Any help would be appreciated. --Carl
