if you take it out and put it back again is it automatically mounted and
can kernel see it when you do fdisk -l ?
Strange. I took it out and put it back again, and the kernel noticed
that it was installed:
SCSI device sdf: 1963525168 512-byte hdwr sectors (100205 MB)
<etc.>
And it showed up as sdf when I did fdisk -l. However, when I ran
"mount," this is what appeared:
/dev/sde1 on /mnt/seagate1 type ext3 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
/dev/sde2 on /mnt/seagate2 type ext3 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
So apparently it's still mounted as /dev/sde1[2], but incorrectly? Very
strange.
Next, I umounted both /dev/sde1 and /dev/sde2, receiving error messages
on the console about "lost page write due to I/O error on sde1 [and 2]"
I've re-plugged it, and it's been recognized as /dev/sde. I ran a
"mount -a" and it's been picked up by the system.
No clue where to go from here. Thanks for your help -
