I had not realised that. Live and learn!! My guess is you've installed the file system (ext4) onto the raw device, so there is no MS-DOS style partition table on the devices. This is fine for Linux, although it suggests the mounting options have changed if they use to automount, and stopped. Usually you'd have to set up a rule to mount such devices, but there are a plethora of ways. In the old days you'd just add a line to /etc/fstab or to the automounter config, but now systemd gets involved I have no clue where to start. Google he suggests Mints disk utility can configure this for you. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG https://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
