          | Please attach the drive to the computer and post the output of the following diagnostic commands ( replace "user" with your user name): Code: 
ls -l /media
mount -l
 cat /etc/mtab
 cat /etc/fstab
 groups user
 su
 fdisk -l

          | Usually a sign of corrupted filesystems. Umount then try fsck or better chkdsk /f x: on a Win pc. |
