Well, try this (to be absolutely sure):
* Plug in the external drive, if it isn't already plugged-in
* Open an xterm or Terminal window...
* Run the command "df" to see what disks you have mounted (the
external drive will probably be something like /media/WD_USB_500
or /mnt/usb or some such).
* Using the partition name from above, enter a command like:
ls -la /media/WD_USB_500
* Do you see the files/directories you copied from SuSE?
Vicky -
I ran df and got:
/dev/sdd1 488264736 93000096 478964640 2% /media/My Book
I ran ls -la /dev/sdd1 and got:
brw---- 1 root disk 8, 49 2008-09-12 18:21 /dev/sdd1
I ran ls -la /media/My Book and got:
"No such file or directory"
The external drive (/dev/sdd1 /media/my Book) is 500.1 GB. Running df
seems to say that the total is about 488 GB, including about 9 GB
occupied and 479 GB free. If I am reading it right, then there are about
12 GB unaccounted for. Is this right?
Thanks again. Kelly
