I just picked up an Iomega 2TB external USB drive. It is formatted

get it seen by debian?

Well, success of sorts. I transfered folders from my debian system using
Ubuntu live just to get something on it. Typed mount in a terminal
window and it showed the following:
/dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
tmpfs on /lib/init/rw type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755)
proc on /proc type proc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
procbususb on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)
udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,noexec,nosuid,gid=5,mode=620)
fusectl on /sys/fs/fuse/connections type fusectl (rw)
/dev/hdb on /new-disk type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
binfmt_misc on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc
(rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
/dev/sda1 on /mnt type vfat (rw)
/dev/sda1 on /home/ve3sjv/Desktop type vfat (rw,uid=1000,gid=100)
It definitely shows the drive is there. Took a look at
computer-->filesystem-->mnt. It showed all five folders and when a
folder was opened all files within are present. The folders show up as
locked folders on the desktop. What I was expecting to see was a drive
icon to show up on the desktop or at the very least show up as a 'named
drive' under the 'computer' icon on the screen or under Places in the
toolbar. My usb stick shows up as a named drive when installed. My 10G
drive that I put into a USb external enclosure shows up as a named
drive on the desktop --
The saga continues.
