mounting usb music player
I need help understanding how to mount my cowon iAudio 7. According to nautlius the music player is already mounted. But I cannot access ( due to file permissions ) it as I can do with my external usb/ide drive.
Here is fdisk -l
First internal drive with Windows 7
Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x20f86de2
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 26 204800 7 HPFS/NTFS
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sda2

Second drive with Lenny 64 bit
<CODE>
Disk /dev/sdb: 320.0 GB, 320072933376 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Below is the Cowon iAudio7 music player
<CODE>
Disk /dev/sdc: 16.5 GB, 16542334976 bytes

This doesn't look like a partition table
Probably you selected the wrong device.
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdc1 ? 912975 995343 84344761 69 Unknown
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sdc2 ? 830821 1743849 934940732+ 73 Unknown
Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sdc3 ? 2 2 0 74 Unknown
Partition 3 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sdc4 1409025 1409050 26207+ 0 Empty
Partition 4 does not end on cylinder boundary.
Partition table entries are not in disk order

This is my external USB/IDE hard drive where I maintain personal files including mail. That means I point icedove to look for folders on this drive. This means I and have to mount a local directory to connect to this drive every time I boot.
i.e.
mount /dev/sdd1 myhome
( myhome being a folder on sdc. I have not been able to do that with the cowon. If you know of a more efficient way of maintaining your personal data securely please let me know.
<CODE>
Disk /dev/sdd: 320.0 GB, 320072933376 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders

Here is my FSTAB. There are two external usb drives missing. Namely, an external dvd reader, sdd and the cowon. I would be grateful if you can show me how to add them and if this will do away
of the neccessity of having to mount the drives manually each time I boot.
<CODE>
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.

# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
