I tried running 'fdisk /dev/sda' and I got the following:
root@erwin:~# fdisk /dev/sda
You will not be able to write the partition table.
Unable to read /dev/sda
I also tried running mount /dev/sda1 /camera and I got the following:
mount: block device /dev/sda1 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: /dev/sda1 is not a valid block device
I am hoping this is what you were referring to when you said kernel logs.
I got this from /var/log/messages
