SysAdmin on large Unix machines (HP-UX, AIX, Linux, and lately solaris). I mainly work on Performance analisys and Tuning for problems related to Infor ERP LN and database (manily oracle). I also design applications and program them, currently in Java. I am absolutely unhappy with Java and I will start my next work probably in Python or Django.

@MaxMackie do you have the storage.partition_scheme on sdb and sdc?

comment fdisk isn't showing my hard drive as properly formatted (but it is)
you should check what disklabel you are using. If it is the DOS one, then fdisk is the right tool, otherwise, let's say you created a solaris disklabel, or an amiga, or whatever, then fdisk might not be right tool, even if the kerne use it without problems. Check what dmesg say about your disk when it found it. Or you may check it with lshal and verify the storage.partitioning_scheme

The command you wrote will completely overwrite the original content. Is that what you want?

Of course bus/device numbers change every time you plug in the device. Could you execute your scanimage with strace: strace -o /tmp/logfile -f -s64 scanimage ...

comment fwui.log error while running this script
Inside your loop, check for the value for the i variable; if it is a name you want to skip, just call continue this way: if [ "$i" = "fwui.log" ]; then continue; fi

comment Groups differ from the local ones when logging in remotely
What does your /etc/nsswitch.conf looks like for group? What is the output of getent YOURUSERNAME? Does your /etc/pam.d/sshd @include common-{session,auth,password,account}?

comment Why is the terminal case-sensitive?
The only option that may help you a little bit is a bash option called cdspell: it try to find the correct file name even if you tiped it wrong, but it is only working for command arguments.

comment Trouble adding existing user to existing group in ubuntu
moreover, the usermod you typed seems correct to me. It fails becuase the ubuntu usermod seems to ignore option -a. Could you try without using it?
