Other than it saying the disk wasn't properly unmounted ...there's nothing out of the ordinary that I can see. sbp2: $Rev: 1219 $ Ben Collins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ieee1394: raw1394: /dev/raw1394 device initialized ieee1394: Node added: ID:BUS[0-00:1023] GUID[000a27000266158c] ieee1394: Node changed: 0-00:1023 -> 0-01:1023 scsi0 : SCSI emulation for IEEE-1394 SBP-2 Devices ieee1394: sbp2: Logged into SBP-2 device ieee1394: Node 0-00:1023: Max speed [S400] - Max payload [2048] Vendor: Apple Model: iPod Rev: 1.50 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 sda: Spinning up disk.....ready SCSI device sda: 39063024 512-byte hdwr sectors (20000 MB) sda: test WP failed, assume Write Enabled sda: asking for cache data failed sda: assuming drive cache: write through sda: [mac] sda1 sda2 sda3 Attached scsi removable disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 Attached scsi generic sg0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0, type 0 HFS+-fs warning: Filesystem was not cleanly unmounted, running fsck.hfsplus is recommended. mounti g read-only.
