Jun 1, 2013 at 7:31 comment added Sam when I try mount -t ext4 -rw /dev/sdb2 /mnt/media, the folder only contains lost+found. my flash is not empty though, I wonder why this happens!
Jun 1, 2013 at 7:25 comment added Sam only this added: usb 2-1: new high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci_hcd
Jun 1, 2013 at 7:20 comment added Raza can you try to boot without your drive run dmesg to see which disk are pick-up and then plug in your drive and run dmesg again to identify exactly which one is your usb disk.
Jun 1, 2013 at 7:10 comment added Sam yes, I also changed usb filesystem format to ext4, but still cannot loads it. it instead load /root filesystem with sdb1 and sda1/2.

Jun 1, 2013 at 7:07 comment added Raza you have already tried "mount -t vfat /dev/sdb2 /mnt/usbdisk" or "mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usbdisk" ?
Jun 1, 2013 at 6:50 comment added Sam negative, in arch linux there is not messages inside /var/log. what I see is btmp faillog journal lastlog old pacman.log wtmp
Jun 1, 2013 at 6:46 comment added Raza if you re-plugin your USB drive, can you tail /var/log/message to identify exactly where is it mounting (ie sda,sdb)
