Hi Craig, 1) oracle Virtualbox, not VMWare - you can manually point out which USB is clamied by virtual machie and which is not. 2) Remis' point was partition table is faulty, which cannot be in case any (virtual) machie but the host sever can mount it successfuly. Anyway reinstalling device-mapper-mpath cure the problem All the best Marcus Od: "Craig White" <craigwhite@xxxxxxxxxxx> Do: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; Wysłane: 17:40 Niedziela 2013-04-21 Temat: Re: Fedora 18 cannot mount any USB device > On Sun, 2013-04-21 at 12:03 +0200, Marek Miller wrote: > > > > > > Od: "Rami Rosen" > > Do: "Marek Miller" ; > > Wysłane: 10:17 Sobota 2013-04-20 > > Temat: Re: Fedora 18 cannot mount any USB device > > > > > Hi, > > > It seems as though there is some problem with the USB device partition > > > table; it is a bit strange because the upgrade should not cause such a > > > problem.
