Hi Carlos, 

It may be that you have partitioned it as GPT partitions. 

Best regards, 
Alexander

| hi oleg

| now i have removed again the internal hdd and want to try the
| external sata.

| i have an external hdd with two partitions:

| dev/sdc1 344gb ext4
| dev/sdc2 121gb ext2

| i want to use the second one, i formatted it not to big (120gb, as
| the internal). I formatted the ext2 in my computer, not in camera...

| i get this in the boot log:

| ----------------------------

| Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 7.00alpha2

| ide: Assuming 50MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with
| idebus=xx

| ide: ETRAX FS built-in ATA DMA controller

| hda: ST3500630AS, ATA DISK drive

| ide0 at 0x10000000-0x10000007,0x2c000000 on irq 65

| hda: max request size: 128KiB

| hda: 976773168 sectors (500107 MB) w/16384KiB Cache,
| CHS=60801/255/63, (U)DMA

| hda: cache flushes supported

| hda: hda1

| ------------------------------

| and in the camera from telnet:

| [root at Elphel353 /]829# fdisk -l

| Disk /dev/hda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes
| 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders
| Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

| Device Boot Start End 1K-Blocks Id System
| /dev/hda1 1 60802 488386583+ ee EFI GPT
| [root at Elphel353 /]829# cat /proc/partitions
| major minor #blocks name

| 3 0 488386584 hda
| 3 1 488386583 hda1
| 31 0 131072 mtdblock0
| 31 1 256 mtdblock1
| 31 2 7936 mtdblock2
| 31 3 24576 mtdblock3
| 31 4 81920 mtdblock4
| 31 5 12288 mtdblock5

| ------------------------------
| in camogmgui i see the partition detected but cant mount it.

| dont know if it is detecting the right partition. It's right to use
| an hdd with more than one partition?

| thanks again.
