Hi, all. When I plug in my external disk drive into my Fedora 28 machine, it does not show up in Nautilus.
I go looking online, and, sure enough, this problem has occurred for plenty of people for 5+ years over many releases of Fedora. I find a discussion in which someone evidently solved the problem. Here is what the person reported: "NVM - found the cause. Old entry in fstab for a second swap not present on sdb1 and first USB disks being assigned sdb. Cleaned that up and now all drives plugging correctly. Willtech ( Sep 23 '18 )" How do I apply this information? Where is fstab? When does a first swap occur? When does a second swap occur? What does it mean to be assigned sdb? Here is the URL to the entire discussion: https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/126908/fedora-28laptop-fails-to-mount-usb-disks/ All suggestions warmly welcomed. I sure would like to see that DVD drive show up. --Nancy _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
