Is that calling the drive a SCSI drive?
It may be an IDE, as all of the other Archos units are IDE.

Subject: mounting an Iriver mp3 player


Hi.  I'm trying to mount my Iriver mp3 player under Fedora Core 3.  When 
I attach the player to the usb port I get:

SCSI device sda: 39063024 512-byte hdwr sectors (20000 MB)
sda: assuming drive cache: write through
SCSI device sda: 39063024 512-byte hdwr sectors (20000 MB)
sda: assuming drive cache: write through
Attached scsi disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0


So I made a directory /iriver and tried to mount it like this:

mount /dev/sda /iriver

I got the error:

mount: you must specify the filesystem type

So then I tried:

mount -t auto /dev/sda /iriver
FAT: invalid media value (0xb9)
mount: you must specify the filesystem type


Under Windows if I remember the drive was seen as a fat32 drive yet I'm 
not able to mount it with the vfat type.

Any ideas/suggestions?
