I added a scsi disk to a machine (fedora is 10 installed to sata disk) but mounting fails.
I boot the machine, I get a mount failure, it tells me to enter root password or ctrl-d to reboot then (just to taunt me) I get sdb info.
Probably an easy fix, for those who know the subtle details of the boot sequence.

Could you post your /etc/fstab and the output of "fdisk -l /dev/sdb"?
Are you attempting to mount a partition on the SCSI drive?

Yes, yes.

By the way the /dev/sdb1 trick did not work either.

Dumb question - did you format the partition?

Yes, it works fine to mount and use manually.
