Cant identify drive with 'blkid'
 

Hi,

I just 0 & 1'd a pen drive, and now I dont see it in 'blkid' output. Is there a way to know where the device is on the system, so that I can format it with a filesystem?

Hi,

have you tried
after plugging in your pen drive? It should tell that it has been registered as something like
[sdX]

You could then use
to create a new disklabel and format it.

I assume your "0 and 1'd" operation also wiped the partition table.
Use any partitioning tool to recreate the partition table and any partitions before creating a filesystem.

Thanks :)
