how do i find out what scsi device my ipod is on??

cat /proc/scsi/scsi

36? what /dev/sd? is that gonna be for me to mount?

using suse9.2 btw

I've not got one but I would hazard a wild guess... would lead me to type dmesg just after connecting, it should be shown there

[vaineh]

gave me a hell of a lot of buffer I/O errors and stuff, too much to paste the whole lot

e.g
end_request: I/O error, dev sdc, sector 0
Buffer I/O error on device sdc, logical block 0
end_request: I/O error, dev sdc, sector 0
Buffer I/O error on device sdc, logical block 0
Buffer I/O error on device sdc, logical block 1
Buffer I/O error on device sdc, logical block 2
Buffer I/O error on device sdc, logical block 3
Buffer I/O error on device sdc, log

[ihayhurst]

could well be sdc

or /dev/sdc1 (assuming it has one partition)

[vaineh]

i added sdc1 to my /etc/fstab and when tried to mount i just get
mount: /dev/sdc1: can't read superblock

Maybe you should try using Gtkpod, here's the rpm for 9.2
