I have a VMware guest OS on a usb2 external drive, and a short time ago the office lost power for a couple minutes. When power came back on, my laptop saw the usb drive as a brand new drive, and won't mount it under its old id. Meanwhile, the system is holding on to the old id so it can eventually flush its I/O to disk. Is there any way I can tell the system that the usb drive I'm plugging in is the same one it needs to flush the data to? Or is that data just lost forever at this point? -- John Abreau / Executive Director, Boston Linux & Unix ICQ 28611923 / AIM abreauj / JABBER jabr at jabber.org / YAHOO abreauj Email jabr at blu.org / WWW http://www.abreau.net / PGP-Key-ID 0xD5C7B5D9 PGP-Key-Fingerprint 72 FB 39 4F 3C 3B D6 5B E0 C8 5A 6E F1 2C BE 99
