iPod not mounting with sbp2 / udev / autofs / hotplug
iPod only mounts if it's there since boot!
Debian Sarge running 2.6.8-2-686, trying to mount my iPod via Firewire, but it's never detected properly. I have all the modules installed and loaded that everyone says are necessary: sbp2, scsi_mod, autofs4, eth1394, ohci1394 My fstab line says: Code:
/dev/sdc2 /media/ipod vfat noauto,user,rw 0 0 When I plug the iPod into its cradle, dmesg gives me: Code:
ieee1394: Node added: ID:BUS[0-01:1023] GUID[000a2700025b6621] Can anyone offer some help? It can clearly work, but not from the steps I see listed again and again throughout the various iPod mounting related posts already found in LQ.org. Whatever is picking it up at boot is not picking it up after boot; how do I get it to kick in properly? |
Linux Journal, uly 2005, has an article about how to work with an iPod. Didn't read the whole thing yet, but it looks like there are detailed instructions, plus some tips on strange things you must do to 'un-dock' the thing.
Hope this points you to some answers. Steve |
Make sure sysfs is mounted on /sys. Look in the directory /sys/block. This gives you realtime information about what Linux has detected.
A howto with out registering is at http://www.ipodlinux.org/Mounting_on_Linux. |
nakko,
I'm having the same problems with a vanilla Ubuntu 5.04 installation I just did for a friend. Were you able to fix the problem? |
