Seriously, though, I don't have any clue why it would be doing that either. You could try updating the driver (both using the windows driver update using the properties of the drive, and by going to LaCie).
Also, another clarification on the Disk Management: use the bottom window, not the top window. The top window, if I remember correctly, only lists drives that are okay. If that LaCie is having difficulties, you'll have to locate it on the bottom half of the window, and it may be grey'd out.

Same story. This is very very very frustrating and I'm about to hurl my PC out the window. If someone has any ideas, they could save me hundreds of pounds worth of damage and a cold night in my bedroom. Thanks!

I've downloaded this image and it boots fine on my laptop/other PCs
If I create a mount point /mnt/net and run
mount -t smbfs -o username=,password= //192.168.0.5/sharename /mnt/netI get an error wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //192.168.0.5/sharename, or too many mounted file systemsThe same commmand to the same share works fine on my Fedora box.I can ping the ip address fine and web appears to work.If I run modprobe smbfs it exits with no error, so I'm assumng the smbfs module is loaded okay.I'm a linux newbie, any ideas?― Jarlr'mai (jarlrmai), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 11:49 (nineteen years ago) link

use 'lsmod' to see loaded modules. (/sbin/lsmod)
> Just remind me why Linux is better than Windows again?
do you know the history of the samba project mark? it's a) interesting and b) a good example of why linux is 'better' than windows.

and this http://linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/blfs-support/2003-June/041463.html says that there's just a symlink missing

but none of the ones i had a look at had freej.
(i've been reading the dynebolic pages and other people do have samba working, albeit in older versions. maybe they just forgot a couple of files. should be easy enough to copy them over from somewhere else (famous last words...). try 'locate smbfs' see if that can find it.)

I tried d/ling the Google toolbar for the new version of FF (0.9) for XP, and there were some reported issues re: getting the damn thing to work - you had to close your browser after d/ling, then deactivate the extension, close AGAIN, activate it, close AGAIN, and then it would be available the next time you opened FF.
Stupid me, I inadvertently downloaded the Google toolbar extension in such a way that I ended up with TWO instances of it in my List Of Extensions, and when I shut down the browser & restarted, a little dialog box called INSTALLING DOWNLOADED EXTENSION (or something like that) popped up. And now I can't get Firefox to open! I click on the wee li'l icon, & that stupid little box shows up, and I can't do dick.
I tried uninstalling / reinstalling - no go. I can reinstall 0.8 just fine, but when I reinstally 0.9, I get the same booshit. I imagine I have to seek out whatever the hell's in my profile directory referring to the Google toolbar. I checked out where the extensions are located in the Mozilla directory, but the files / directories are named something like {9dka-doiw822-adakjj}. Help?
ALSO: where the hell can I snag a copy of Doom II? My sis wants me to burn a copy for my nephew's 6th birthday.

"The Samba filesharing daemon is running on your dyne:bolic: everything contained in the /home/shared directory is accessible (read and write) as a shared folder on the network you are connected, without any password protection - the share is called 'dyne:bolic casbah'."
/etc/samba is viewable here: http://cvs.dyne.org/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/initrd_tree/etc/samba/
