No, that doesn't matter. The problem is with the partition table.
Insert the pen drive again, check the device name, sdb in this case.
Open a terminal and type the following command
sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb
where sdb is the device name, it might change this time.
And paste the output here.

did not see dmesg from you earlier. From the result posted the drive
is detected properly but kernel is not able to identify the file
system or superblock.  Did you tried mounting /dev/sdb ( the output
detects deice as sdb) ? Also, what is the filesystem type on the drive
you are trying to mount ?

 did you do dmesg after plugging the device. Check if linux is able to
identify the vendor and model number.
 Also, if this is one of the cheap taiwanise device then you might
have to tweak the modprobe params. But unless you post the output of
dmesg, post plugging the device no one can help you.

also, sometimes its a good idea to plug it directly into the usb port
of the machine and not into a hub, in case there's a power-related
issue.

After you plug Pen drive and wait for 2minutes and then post the
output of "dmesg | tail"
Also, use "fdisk -l" to know device location and then try to mount it manually

[ubuntu-in] 64gb thumb drive not mounting on Hardy

2008-10-25 Thread Mir Nazim
Hi guys

A friend of mine got a 64gb thumb drive and its not mounting. I tried
it on different systems, laptops, PC and even of older versions like
feisty and gutsy, but could not mount it.
Its working on Vista though.

Any ideas why this is happening and how to fix this problem.
