Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 6.10
Toshiba Satellite A65 S126 Laptop
1) Using Acronis True Image Home 10.0 created image of 60 gig Win xp
NTFS system from original hard drive (removed drive from laptop and put
it in a USB enclosure; wrote image to desktop computer).
2) Restored NTFS partition to new 120 gig Hard drive (using Acronis
software and USB enclosure).
3) Put new 120 gig hard drive (with 60 gig NTFS win xp system partition
in laptop) and installed Ubuntu. Kept 60 gig partition and added 25 gig
partition for Ubuntu, plus 5 gig swap, and 30 gig FAT32.
4) Added a folder (called 'data') in original 60 gig hard drive and put
this drive in USB enclosure.
5) Plug USB enclosure into laptop with Ubuntu running. It shows up on
desktop as hda1 (2) (usb icon shows) -- a copy of hda1 (the NTFS
partition) and the data folder created does not show. Ubuntu appears to
ignore the external usb drive and only looks at local NTFS partition.
6) Another drive (formatted FAT32) installed in the usb enclosure shows
up correctly and Ubuntu can read/write files on that one.
