if you reformat them , use ext3 filesystem not FAT.

this means you need to make sure you have vfat support compiled into your current kernel, and when you mount the disk , add the vfat switch to the mount command, as file system type is not Linux.

files could be hidden...
ll will not show hidden files, so try with ls -la maybe?

also , if its mounted properly it should contain a lost+found directory ..oddly its not showing that.

Hi

ive recently add a USB drive to my server. but there is no files showing in it. even tho i know there is files for example


[root@i 3]# ll
total 0
[root@i 3]# cd /2
[root@i 2]# ll
total 0
[root@i 2]#


yet when i try df -h

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md1 49G 8.3G 38G 18% /
/dev/md3 1.3T 38G 1.2T 4% /home
/dev/sdc1 596G 405G 192G 68% /2
/dev/sdd1 15G 16K 15G 1% /3

any ideas??
