[G4] Remounting Firewire Drives

[Darin Ames]

Launch Disk Utility, highlight the Volume you wish to remount (not the
actual hard drive, but the Volume) and select Mount from the Options menu.

Hope this helps,

>> Hi,

>> I make heavy use of a pocket 40gig LaCie firewire drive.  I go from office
>> to home, and only have to insert the firewire connector to start up and
>> power the drive....that works great.
>> 
>> What I do not like is that to dismount you drag the drive icon to the trash,
>> or do command-e to eject....which is fine, but if you want to remount the
>> drive, you have to physically pull the connector and then reinsert it into
>> the drive.
>> 
>> I have had no problems or near misses with fried firewire problems, but
>> seems to me the more often I have to physically connect and reconnect, the
>> more my chances of a problem occurring.
>> 
>> Anyone have a software solution to get the firewire drives to mount?
>> 
>> Thanks,
