Hi,
I am trying to mount the mass storage onto my Ubuntu Lucid machine.
I am seeing the storage device and can open the device through fdisk but can see there are no partitions.
What is the partition type used for the Mass Storage? would this be a standard USB type format that should be supported by my machine.
I want to check that I have support for this format.
Thanks in advance!
I think that fdisk should show format of partitions...hmm

Something is wrong there. How big a device does fdisk see?
Try putting a micro-SD card in, and see if Ubuntu can read that in UMS mode.

Do you select mass storage mode on the N900 after plugging in the USB cable? If not, the mass storage devices will still be shown to the host but they will be empty/0-size.

Thanks for the replies!
I have just tested a USB Key and it mounted automatically and works.
when I look at the device in Disk Utilities or fdisk, I can see that the device size is 29GB.
On the phone itself, I can view the stats on the device as well as the files inside, so the device is working on the phone.
Is a strange one.
Thanks

for future remeber that this is not n900 forum.There is also all the old devices.from first post I thought that you are talking about some other mass storage device.
