[VU+ Solo2] Mount Manager

[Willmoore]

In Mount Manager I see my HDD, I also have a USB fitted (picons are stored on it) but I do not see it - should I be able to ?

*sorry about the title spelling - can not seem to alter it.

go to blue button on remote and go to vix, mount manager anything attached will show there, or re-mount it from there

That's where I was looking and only the HDD shows. The usb works well enough and the picons load from it.

Can you telnet into the box & issue:

df -h

Then post the results here.

I've never used telnet before - is this what you are after ? I can't seem to copy the text so have taken a screen shot - hope you can see it.

yes, that shows your USB mounted. No idea why it's not showing in your mount manager though.

Anyone else have any thoughts ?

I would disconnect everything and start again and see if works. my picons are on my HDD and I've had no issues for a year and half.

One thing I can see is that the file system on the USB stick has been written to the raw device (/dev/sdb) rather than a partition table being created and a file system being put onto that (which would then be /dev/sdb1).
This is all perfectly valid, and some USB sticks come pre-formatted this way, but may confuse the mount manager.
If you could copy off everything you could reformat the stick to have a partition table then copy things back on (perhaps do this on a PC?).
