Can't mount to external firewire drive
I was able to mount this drive (2 partitions) for a couple of years until recently. I get the following error when I try to mount to the first partition of the drive "mount: /dev/sda1 is not a valid block device" as well as "mount: /dev/sda2 is not a valid block device" for the second partition.

I've already tried to restart the system and reset the firewire cable and no dice. I'm running Slackware 10.0 with kernel 2.4.26. Could it be the firewire cable? |
