[TriLUG] 4TB GPT Disk fails to Mount with Tomato 2.6.22.19 Kernel

[Thomas Gardner]

I was just thinking that, myself.  In particular, unplug the drive
and have a look at the tail end of dmesg to familiarize yourself with
what's already there (since it doesn't have timestamps), then plug in
the drive and check dmesg again to see what has been added to the end.
Also, I don't know if Tomato has a /var/log (or equivalent) directory
or not, but if it does, a time-sorted listing in that directory is the
fastest, easiest and most accurate way I know to find which log file
to look in for more clues.
