On my system, the device was assigned the name  sdg1.  On your machine

there is no sda1 or sdg1 showing in the emelfm program

I have attached a screen shot, though i do not know if it will be right as i can open it hear (as i stated before)

[Juanito]

I dont know what the line in the middle means

"|"

It's the character above the backslash "\" key on a US keyboard or on the key at top left (below the "Esc" key) on a UK keyboard that requires the "Alt Gr" key.

You will not find it in the /home/tc subdirectory, you need to look at the /mnt subdirectory.

You could also try the mnttool, the icon of a disk drive with a green spot in the bottom right corner.

If that doesn't work, you could try the commands "ls /dev/sd*" or "ls /dev/hd*"

There is nothing hear!

sdb1 is showing green and everything ells red. it is just a dead link when you press it. Can not open it up to see what is on the drive

If that doesn't work, you could try the commands "ls /dev/sd*" or "ls /dev/hd*"

/dev/sd has done nothing!
dev/hd has done nothing too!

Which keyboard do you have - US, UK or?

[Juanito]

sdd1 red ***yes you press the botton and it turns green**
Is there any chance I can open it?

Yes, either navigate to /mnt/sdd1 using emelfm or other file manager or “ls /mnt/sdd1”.

I think we discussed this before as there is no /mnt/sdd1 present in emelfm

[Juanito]

Yes there is - highlight /home/tc and type /mnt/sdd1 <cr>

[JunkYard]

Yes there is - highlight /home/tc and type /mnt/sdd1 <cr>

That directory dose not exist! please see screen shot

[Juanito]

You are still looking at /home/tc

Click on the folder icon to the right of /home/tc - that will move you to /home. Click on the folder icon to the right of /home - that will move you to /.

You will now be able to see /mnt - double-click on /mnt and you will be able to see /sdd1 - double-click on /sdd1 and you will be able to see its contents.

but I have typed "/mnt/sdd1 <cr>" and pressed enter and told that directory dose not exist
this makes no sence what so ever! there is no /mnt/sdd1 <cr> in the folder box. only a "../"
