Do you mean it isn't mounted, or that it isn't there at all? Try:
Code:
sudo fdisk -l

Does Debian use sudo?

Regardless, you can simply enter "su" to switch to root, then "fdisk -l".

Some distros automatically set up mount points and entries in fstab. Go to either /mnt or /media and see what's there.

Thanks Billy
got this using sudo fdisk -l
We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:

#1) Respect the privacy of others.
#2) Think before you type.
#3) With great power comes great responsibility.
