I have a Seagate 5gb st1 microdrive for my SL-6K and when I type fdisk /dev/hda It returns "unable to read /dev/hda". I want to use the drive but I can't mount it. I'm also logged into the terminal as root. THANKS....

Is this an OEM or retail packed drive? If it's an OEM or a drive you ripped out of another device, the firmware may not support being used in a PDA.

I've been using the Seagate St1 5gb with my C860 (cacko 1.22 rom) for a few months and it works fine.

QUOTE(arepih @ Dec 30 2005, 09:25 PM) I bought this card from auction. I think it was taken from Muvo MP3 player That makes sense. The older Muvos had drives that could work in CF mode. It was because of the mass-auctioning of microdrives that Hitachi later crippled the firmware. Bottom line, you can't know for certain just based on the microdrive model. It depends on the firmware. You take a risk buying OEM. |
