I am currently running Ubuntu 16.10 on my portable LACIE hard drive. It works perfectly except for one thing: my iPod 4th gen cannot be recognized by Ubuntu. The iPod has iPod linux (unpartitioned), Rockbox, and the default iPod software on my iPod, has a 32 GB SSD and is formatted as a Winpod.

Why isn't my computer automatically mounting my iPod, and what can I do to get my iPod to mount?

I just tried the command sudo fsck.vfat -a -l -v /dev/sdc2 and it seemed to mount when I put the CF card into the computer. When I later plugged the entire iPod in and ran the same command, this confirmed that it worked.

I thought I'd have to type it in every time, but I don't. Anyways, whoever wants to actually do this can now.
