All right, fdisk does not see the drives. Have they been partitioned? Run gparted to check:
Code:
$ sudo apt-get install gparted
$ gksudo gparted
Once in gparted, go to gparted->devices and see if your drives appear there. If they do, you can use gparted to partition them. BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN DOING THIS since if you accidentally repartition the wrong drive you will irrevocably lose all your data.
