I assume the device is a USB-pen drive.
What does the "fdisk -l" output display ?

odcheck 09-26-2006 07:51 AM
Is it formatted which filesystem?
I just checked my 512MB pen and it shows 525MB.
It is FAT32 formatted.

fidsk -l i got this message and im wondering why it has only 8mb since my usb storage is 1g how can i fix it ?

lord_cedrich how is it formatted?

lord_cedrich 09-27-2006 06:19 PM
I dont know how it is formatted, i didnt see in my linux box the info of the USB storage

odcheck 09-28-2006 12:53 AM
If you don't loose any files then format it with
Code:
mkfs.vfat -f 32 /dev/sda
