Hello,
Today I bought a 10 gig "Mac and Windows" iPod and an IEEE 1394 card that is
on the list of suported hardware. When I fdisk /dev/sda I see the iPod, but
not the partitions. It says it's not of a known file system type. Do I have
a HFS+ iPod? Most instructions for converting the HFS+ to FAT32 have you dd
/dev/sda2, and /dev/sda2 doesn't exist for me.
Here is the fdisk /dev/sda output when I hit 'p':
Disk /dev/sda: 10.0 GB, 10000005120 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1215 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Here's how I try to bring it up:
modprobe ieee1394
modprobe ohci1394
modprobe sbp2
modprobe sd_mod
mount /mnt/iPod
Here's what I see in my system logger, as you can see there is a big delay
when running it:
Jun 22 23:16:41 [kernel] ieee1394: sbp2: Logged into SBP-2 device

Here's how I bring it down:
rmmod sbp2
umount /mnt/iPod/
Here's what I get in the system logger:
Jun 22 23:17:51 [kernel] ieee1394: sbp2: Logged out of SBP-2 device
Jun 22 23:17:51 [kernel] scsi : 0 hosts left.
Here's my fstab entry:
/dev/sda2 /mnt/iPod vfat uid=1000,defaults,noatime,errors=remount
I can't figure out what the problem is, if you have any suggestions I would
appreciate them greatly.
Thanks,
Zach Hobbs
