n_K Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 It's trying to mount them as fat, are they fat file systems or something else? (Ex-fat for instance) Haggis 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n_K Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Humm strange. As root, can you try something like; cd /tmp mkdir aa mount /dev/sdb1 /tmp/aa (if that fails) mount -t msdos /dev/sdb1 /tmp/aa (and if that fails) mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /tmp/aa (if that fails I think centos is a bit broken) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
