I'm on a Linux 64-bit system. I have a Toshiba external drive plugged in. My desktop crashed. Just before crashing, I was watching a movie I had stored on the external drive, an old John Wayne flick. After the crash, I plugged the external into my Chromebook, and had no problem accessing the Toshiba drive. With my desktop fixed and working, I replugged the drive into the desktop, and I'm getting the following message: Failed to open directory: "TOSHIBA EXT". Error when getting information for file '/media/jeff/TOSHIBA EXT/The Quiet Man 1952 BRRip 720p x264 - PiRATE': Input/output error. I've tried plugging it into another USB port, rebooted, still no luck. It seems to be stuck trying to open this move and can't seem to get it to work. Anyone have any insight into what I need to do to fix this? Many thanks.

Can it access anything else on the drive? The file path looks odd. Is the device called TOSHIBA EXT? If so, I would expect it to be mounted at /media/TOSHIBA EXT, not /media/jeff/TOSHIBA EXT.

Check these two pages for possible solutions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilesystemTroubleshooting https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB Report back with more information if unsuccessful. Btw.: If you have a Windows system at hands you may try to connect your drive over there. Windows is probably less forgiving in case of inconsistencies compared to Chrome OS (and therefore more likely to execute auto-repair) and less command line driven compared to Linux file system repair tools. After connection to the Windows box, run a full chkdsk.

Maybe it still has a (bad) mountpoint, could be mounted as another user (root maybe) (no idea if Linux still uses mtab, it's been so long since Linux has crashed, even longer since I manually mounted anything).

I live a cursed life. I removed the line pointing to the Toshiba drive, unplugged the Toshiba drive, saved the mtab file, reattached the Toshiba drive, and immediately got the same error message as before. Something is stuck somewhere, and damn it, I just can't figure it out! For the record, I placed the MX Linux DVD into the DVD drive, rebooted to that system, and tried accessing the Toshiba drive. No luck, same error message.

No luck, same error > message. Late-breaking news. Had a brainstorm (for me, a drizzle...). I hooked up the Toshiba drive to my Chromebook. I had no trouble opening the drive on the Chromebook. I searched out the file that seemed to be giving me so many problems -- The Quiet Man, with John Wayne. I thought, why not just delete the file from the drive and see what happens? It won't delete. I go through all the keystrokes, and the delete request is ignored. I tried renaming it, but Chromebook tells me File not found. Incredible. I highlight the file, use the command to Rename, and I get a File not Found. Anyway, continuing to stew...

Incredible. > I highlight the file, use the command to Rename, and I get a File not Found. Most likely explanation at this point is, that your disk is formatted as NTFS and it carries two different master file tables (corruption due to the crash). If you cannot plug it in a Windows system for auto-repair (this isn't guaranteed to be successful, btw.), you should run TestDisk against the drive: www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk Testdisk is likely to be already installed on your Linux system. Please be sure to carefully read the documentation and - if in doubt - always accept suggestions for automatic solutions. Safe information wherever it is suggested by the tool.

Maybe Chromebook mounts it read only ? If so, it would be impossible to delete or rename the fire. Check the mtab entry when you mount it with the Glugle thing.

If the drive is a vfat/ext4/ntfs etc I would be inclined to mount directly. Example: mkdir /tmp/TESTFS umount -l /media/jeff/TOSHIBA\040EXT # (lazy umount to disconnect dodgy mount) then, mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /tmp/TESTFS -o ro Replace vfat with whatever fs is on the drive if it is not vfat/fat32/fat16. It might also be useful to check the output of dmesg as errors with devices are frequently reported there.

I remembered from my LFS days that when the power went down I would have to remove lines from my /etc/mtab, or else I could not mount my floppy disks anymore. I would have imagined that modern Linux dists would have an utility to do that after a crash. Anyway, Jeff apparently removed the line from mtab, then the drive. It was supposed to be the other way round. Remove drive Remove line in mtab (maybe reboot to allow any scripts to do their thing) Plug drive back in. If that does not work, maybe (sorry to be rude) unmounting and then fscking the drive over might work. []'s -- Don't be evil - Google 2004 We have a new policy - Google 2012
