Sergio in the event that you still can mount the volume(s) and access them; modprobe -d ieee1394 modprobe -d ohci1394 modprobe -d sbp2 modprobe -d sd_mod fdisk -l Manually loads the required modules, then fdisk (hopefully) returns the partition map for all devices. Look to the SCSI since

I do not recommend Sony at all. Not just laptops, but any of their proprietary 'stuff' (substitute a more colorful adjective here :) ). For many of the VAIOs the issues are resolved when you include ACPI support and turn off APM support. It's just that; a) Sony support for laptops has been hor

Farschad remember, USB storage drives use SCSI modulation, just like 1394/iLink (firewire) devices. So when you're adding them and looking for them, you want to look for SCSI devices. Modules that may be required depending upon your system include; usbdevfs sd_mod I would boot the system,

Pablo you'll need to recompile your kernel to include both FS type support as well as emulation if you want to run binaries on that system, specifically; CONFIG_SYSV_FS is the FS TYPE you want to include as a module, sysv.o If you get lost there is a paper www.crazytrain.com under papers, kern

Brian 'dd' doesn't care about the FS type (NTFS). You can use 'dd' to create an image file of your NTFS volume no worries. There would be nothing to add, other than perhaps depending upon the size of that volume some optimization such as block size setting. example; dd if=/dev/hda3 bs=4k of=
