Fdisk et al are utilities for managing partition tables, which the device in question lacks. What you really want is to have the device recognition software (whatever you're using) recognize the device for the unpartitioned filesystem that it is, and do the right thing. As you note, mount does the right thing when told to. And I'm really not sure where to assign this issue, just that fdisk and mount are behaving as they should. lamont -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
