Evidently it is device known as /dev/sdc Probably best not to fool with it much as root in a terminal, you can figure out what is mounted simply by typing 'mount' IE...my ipod (not a mini) mount command shows... /dev/sda2 on /media/80IPOD type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,noatime,uid=1000,utf8,shortname=lower) so my ipod is /dev/sda and /dev/sda2 is mounted at /media/80IPOD $ ls -l /media/80IPOD/ total 80 drwxr-xr-x 2 craig root 16384 Jan 1 2000 Calendars drwxr-xr-x 2 craig root 16384 Jan 1 2000 Contacts drwxr-xr-x 6 craig root 16384 Sep 10 2006 iPod_Control drwxr-xr-x 2 craig root 16384 Jan 1 2000 Notes drwxr-xr-x 3 craig root 16384 Nov 22 12:08 Photos so far so good... ls -l /media/80IPOD/iPod_Control ... ls -l /media/80IPOD/iPod_Control/Music which then shows all the folders and the music is inside the folders. The file/folder naming scheme doesn't make sense to us. but it can be discerned from /media/80IPOD/iPod_Control/iTunes/iTunesDB but it needs something that can make sense of that. That's where Amarok, gtkpod or other programs come in. Find the icon on the desktop and right click it, tell it to 'Safely Remove' and then after telling you to remove it, disconnect from computer. Fire up Amarok (or whatever), once it launches, then connect the iPod again...Amarok should find it just fine.
