[PROBLEM] my external hd will not mount

[Mentalblaze]

Hi.
I have an xbian on a raspberry pi 3 and the axternal HD used to mount but it seema I removed it one too many while running and now it won't show up when I connect it.

The drive is a 2.5 external usb3 hd. and I have a usb with external power on it as well.
The drive works fine in windows (ntfs) but I cant see it in xbian.
I also tried using an usb2 hubb I have without any luck.

I run the xbian from a connected USB stick (sda1) so this should be sdb1, I guess.
Tried "mount" but only the sda1 is shown.

Have there been some remnants left from my pulling the cord that I need to clean up? And if that is the case, how do I do that?

If reboot does not help, a look in dmesg after connecting external disk may help to figure out whats going on

Thanks. There it shows that some error have occured.

Not sure what I can do about it though.

Code:

That does not look very good. You reported, that you can mount disk under windows. First I would do is to run a complete check under windows.

Another check could be, to run sudo dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/zero bs=1M status=progress on XBian side, to see if disk can be read completely without errors

No errors in windows disc check but back in xbian I get this:

Code:

Hmm, sorry, no idea whats causing this. Seems things are going worser and worser

[Mentalblaze]

Thanks for the help in any case. I'll probably take a backup on Kodi and install a new version.
For now I have a backup with pc and chromecast.
