   There is a problem with my 14TB drive that Slack 15.0 can't handle   
   but 14.2 can. 15.0 can handle (mount) other of my 14TB drives,   
   but not this one. Based upon the dmesg info I posted earlier,   
   I think the problem is something like the drive doensn't spin   
   up fast enough for 15.0.   
      
   Thanks for the help.
