Hi,
Earlier this week I was formatting a 16GB Adata USB 3.0 stick to different filesystems trying to figure what would work best to copy files over to a Mac. In the process, I somehow "broke" it in the sense that it is not recognized by any of my computers. The last partitioning I did was NTFS I believe using GParted on Crunchbang Linux. After removing it, it was no longer detected when I plugged it back in. I've tried on the Mac (OS X Mavericks), a Windows 7 laptop (I ran diskmgmt.msc and it showed up there, but couldn't modify it) and another Fedora system (it only showed up in gnome-disk-manager as a NAND drive, but once again still couldn't edit anything).
As for under Crunchbang, it doesn't show up in the file manager like it used to and GParted doesn't detect it either. Here are some CLI outputs:
# fdisk -l
$ lsusb
# dmesg | grep usb
Would anyone know what's wrong or how to mount it properly so I can modify the drive? Feel free to ask for more info if needed, I'll provide it with pleasure.
Thanks for any help!
