sda1 appears to be an extended partition which means you can not mount to it. sda5 has a partition ID of ff which is a xenix bad block table and overlaps sda1.
So the drive is corrupted. I would reformat it and see what happens. |
Thak you very much.....
how could I reformat it?... |
Use fdisk to wipe out the existing partitions and create a new one.
Then use mkdosfs command to format a filesystem. You might have some windows utilities to create a new filesystem too. |
Thank you very much michaelk,
it works.... (Now, I am going to try the same with a TRANSCEND HDD 2.5"... ) See you! |
