This is the nub of the problem. I don't think my system is behaving as expected and although I doubted myself, I'm beginning to believe there is bug somewhere other than the user!
Before attach USB HDD ls /dev/evms/sd* ls: cannot access /dev/evms/sd*: No such file or directory ls /dev/sd* /dev/sda /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda3 /dev/sda5 /dev/sda6 /dev/sda7 After attach USB HDD ls /dev/evms/sd* /dev/evms/sdb ls /dev/sd* /dev/sda /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda3 /dev/sda5 /dev/sda6 /dev/sda7 /dev/sdb So the device used for external drive is /dev/sdb - but: fdisk /dev/sdb Unable to read /dev/sdb In YAST, I can see a line /dev/evms/sdb. However, when click on create (with sdb line selected or not, it makes no difference), it does not give me an radio button option for /dev/sda or /dev/sdb, but goes straight to "Create a Primary Partition on /dev/sda". Now, the log says "SCSI error: return code = 0x10070000". When I google this string, its a known probelm that to me looks like a kernel error. It is clearly seen that the device is recognized and that it reads the basic information of the drive, but cannot access it further.
