Re: [LUG] Usb HDD



Not sure but would the device be seen as mass storage, perhaps you need to
take a similar approach to what you would with a digital camera device, but
mount read / write.

Not sure though,  just an idea.

Subject: [LUG] Usb HDD


Evening all has anyone had any experience with Usb drives, i have just
got hold of a 32meg pen drive but have no idea how to access it from
within linux?

The drive has been detected on my usb hub, and i have the required 2.4+
kernel needed for the drive but apart from knowing its there im a bit
lost as to what to put in the fstab file if i put anything in there at
all.

would normally try to solve this problem myself but several google
searches have come up blank.

any clues would be appreciated, going to see if my mainboard supports
booting from flash memory devices and if so will try to shove a linux
system onto the Usb drive! linux where ever i go :)
