/dev/sdf1 is a partition. /dev/sdf is the device. Try:
# fdisk -l /dev/sdf
(that's "dash ell", by the way). That should show you the partition
table on drive /dev/sdf.
Sorry, my mistake. I don't do these things too
often.
[root@localhost par]# /sbin/fdisk -l /dev/sdf
Disk /dev/sdf: 4089 MB, 4089445376 bytes
33 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3841 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2079 * 512 = 1064448 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x7ef87cc2
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdf1 1 3842 3993583 b W95 FAT32
But I cannot see any message here that points out what goes wrong -
why it is set to readonly.
