I accidentally deleted block special file /dev/sdb
trying to wipe my usb thumbdrive. Now /dev/sdb
is not listed under fdisk -l
, but the thumdrive still opens in file manager when I insert it to the port.
So, I want to know if there's a fix, or what the consequences are (I can't apply operations to dev/sdb
in terminal, for one thing).
Many thanks,
The command I used to delete was:
sudo rm -R -i /dev/sdb
