Stuck with a USB stick
by Tossu from LinuxQuestions.org on (#565G0)
Hi,
I got my USB stick completely messed up. Somehow it looks like it have 3 different partitions. I can't format, delete, or modify it in any way - at least that I know of! (GParted, USB memory stick format dont do anything and I've tried a variety of options from the terminal - which I have found some instructions online (dd, mkfs, fdisk)) Nothing....
Code:# sudo lsblk -f
sdb
sdb1 iso9660 Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon 64-bit 2020-06-24-19-01-47-00 0 100% / media / mika / Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon 64-bit
sdb2 vfat 1AC3-20ED 7.7M 935433269457888000% / media / mika / 1AC3-20ED
sdb3 ext4 writable b8425d1c-7d1c-4ee5-bfd5-f398d3d86c83 53G 0% / media / Mika / writableSo ... (how) can I fix it to make it work again?
Thank's
