Problem with usb hdd

    Hello to everybody


    I have a problem with my usb hard disk: I have always the message "not enough space < 100 MB....
    I use last gemini 4.20 in flash.


    I have read all the related topics, and did not find a solution.
    My disk seems to be mounted twice (sda1 and scsi). How to disable the automount which always give the priority to sda1 ? I never found /etc/auto.hotplug....


    I have already formatted my disk with ext3 and gave the name "hdd".


    Here are my logs :

    Thanks for your help.

    are you sing Mountie4GP2 Plugin (otherwise labeling the harddisk hdd is useless)

    Thanks very very much for your more than quick answer !!


    No , because I did not yet found it... Is it in data-base ? Which section please ? I did not see it in dm800 plugins.


    Sorry, but I studied only forum since last week (when I baught my box) and just registered today... :O


    EDIT : OK I found them in the forum. I try and will report.

    Hello to all


    I installed Mountie full, and strangely, the system looped with installing the disk then starting the camd, then re-installing disk...and so on.


    I re-started from scratch with formatting usb disk fat32 with PC, installing gemini 4.2 in flash, installing Mountie light.


    Now all is ok, except the disk is not ext3 formatted but fat32, and I cannot record a long movie in HD.


    My question : can I safely unmount the disk and format with the command MKFS.ext3 ? Then do I have to rename the usb disk, or mountie light will do the job ?
