bad block dev when mounting a usb stick
I'm using Mandrake 9.1. I want to be able to mount a usb stick and use this as a removable drive. I have installed Mandrake sever times on a number of machines - compaq deskpro, hpcompaq d330. Some times the installation does everything for me.
there is an icon on the desktop for a removable drive, the drive automounts just fine as there is a line in the fstab to make this happen.. Makes me happy
On the last few machines all this did not happen, no /dev/sda1, nothing about a removable drive in the fstab.
I found a few posts that tell me how to get the usb stick working, i followed the direction to the letter, but I alway get the error message bad block device sda1.
Any suggestions?
thanks
