One of the partitions of my external FireWire drive somehow unmounted itself, and I can't get it to come back. It shows up in DiskUtility and verifies fine, but when I click 'mount,' nothing happens. Trying from Terminal, I get:

user$ disktool -a disk1s3
disktool: missing device, mountpoint or flags for afp mount
AFP Usage: disktool -a device mountpoint flags

The other partition is there, and functions fine. What's going on here?

ibook g4, 10.3.9
