&gt; I'm guessing it might be showing up as a different usb device now.  Try 
&gt; the following:
&gt; 
&gt; fdisk -l /dev/sda
&gt; fdisk -l /dev/sdb
&gt; .
&gt; .
&gt; fdisk -l /dev/sdz
&gt; 
&gt; Or until you're satisified. :)
&gt; 
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; And then I think I am back to a question that was asked earlier
&gt; &gt; this week.  How do I make the OS consistently identify this drive
&gt; &gt; as sdc1 rather than sd?1, which it is doing now, depending on
&gt; &gt; how many other USB &quot;storage devices&quot; have been plugged in before
&gt; &gt; it?
&gt; &gt; I have this line ready to activate in /etc/fstab:
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt;     #/dev/sdc1  /mnt/backup  ext3 noauto,owner,ro 0 0
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; And if that isn't correct I would really appreciate a correction
&gt; &gt; _before_ I screw something up any further.
&gt; 
&gt; Has nothing to do with your entry in fstab, unfortunately.  You're going
&gt; 
&gt; to have to look at either hotplug or udev, depending on your kernel. 
&gt; Personally, I've found nothing but frustration when trying to get this 
&gt; to work on older kernels.  On SuSE 9.2 it just works.  Sweet.
