HP xw3400 User Manual page 102

Plug in the IEEE-1394 hardware (i.e. external hard drive). Follow manufacturer's instructions for
3.
setup.
Mount device
Look for the new device in the output from fdisk –l (i.e. /dev/sdb1)
1.
If a new device is not automatically detected, force a scan of the SCSI bus. The best
2.
way to do this is to download a script that will do a complete scan. (i.e.,
http://www.garloff.de/kurt/linux/rescan-scsi-bus.sh
text below.)
Make a temporary directory (i.e., /mnt/fw)
3.
Mount the device to a local directory (i.e. mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/fw). Try /dev/sda1
4.
or /dev/sdb2 if you get an error about needing to specify a file system type.
