    External drive recognition probs

    Hi,

    I have a Sony Vaio GRX600. I have attached to it via the iLink (1394)port a hard drive inside a drive enclosure. Knoppix recognizes the 4 internal NTFS partitions on the Sony, but does not seem to recognize the external drive which is FAT32.

    What can I do to help Knoppix recognize the external drive?

    Thx,

    tomber

    It's not working so I am going to get a new copy of Knoppix--one without the cloop errors. I bought this thing of ebay because the isos I download never match in md5 and won't boot. I am going to start over and repost later. Thx.
