If "df" shows something on a loop device, then it's mounted somewhere or df wouldn't know how to extract the size data. For example, with an ISO image mounted via loop to /mnt/Misc using the command mount -t loop /path/to/iso/image.iso /mnt/Misc I see: [root@prophead ~]# df -h ... /dev/loop0 1.2G 1.2G 0 100% /mnt/Misc It shows up in fdisk using an "fdisk -l": [root@prophead ~]# fdisk -l ... Disk /dev/loop0: 1.1 GiB, 1222639616 bytes, 2387968 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 Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x6b8b4567 Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/loop0p1 * 0 2387967 2387968 1.1G 0 Empty /dev/loop0p2 105336 118339 13004 6.4M ef EFI (FAT-12/16/32) /dev/loop0p3 118340 146419 28080 13.7M 0 Empty If you mount external media via the GUI or if it's automounted, it should mount in /run/media/your-user-name/blah with "blah" being either the media's filesystem label or some string that identifies the USB device. If you don't see somewhat similar things, then check dmesg and your logs for errors and/or hints. And you know better than to top-post on this list, right?
