mouting external hard drive

[razzle82]

I'm trying to mount my external hard drive but i'm not sure what am i doing wrong. i also downloaded NTFS configuration tool that did work but not any more.

thank you in advance

Did you "safely remove" the external harddrive the last time you used it? Or did you just unplug it?

Open a terminal and post the output of this command here.

Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
sudo fdisk -l
