Then I just entered "mkdir /mnt/usbdisk" - output: "mkdir: cannot create directory `/mnt/usbdisk': File exists" The USB-HDD is detected, but I get still the same message when trying to open it. I also noticed that today booting was stopped or...

The Terminal shows up like this: _______________________________________________________________________ GNU nano 2.2.2 File: /etc/apt/sources.list Modified deb http://packages.linuxmint.com/ isadora main upstream import deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid main restrict...

I'm afraid this makes no difference.
Besides that, I was able to write the changes without pressing anything after the commands.
