Hello
our external scsi drive is detached, so it is not showing up in fdisk -l however it shows up mounted in /etc/mtab
is there any command that I can run to detect and re attach the hard drive again ? I don't want to reboot the computer.
Thanks
Check out this page: http://www.garloff.de/kurt/linux/ Look under "Rescan SCSI bus"
Should be able to use "umount -f <device>" to remove from mtab first.
