I try to use a HDD. When I type
sudo fdisk -l
I get
Disk /dev/sdb: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121601 cylinders, total 1953525168 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x8c508bb8
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 * 0 0 0 0 Empty
When I type df
(with and without sudo) /dev/sdb does not appear.
When I type sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb /mnt
i get
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
What should I do?
