Mandrake 10 automatically detects it as an external storage drive. Works flawlessly for me.

Works perfectly! It is formatted FAT, so it will work with basically any OS. Mandrake detected it as a removable disk, and I can access under /mnt/removable. Ha Josh! I 1^ you!

Kernel (uname -r): 2.6.5
Distribution: Fedora core 2


mount drive by
mkdir /mnt/sda1
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1

if you end up not being able to write to or possibly even read go on a windows box and reformat the drive using fat instead of fat32.
That will allow Fedora Core 2 to work with the drive without altering your kernel.

Kernel (uname -r): 2.6.8.1
Distribution: Slackware 9.1


No install problems at all...
Added a line to /etc/fstab:

/dev/sda1 /mnt/usbdisk auto defaults,user,noauto 0 0

and then after a

mkdir /mnt/usbdisk

executing

mount /mnt/usbdisk

worked without problems.
Format in ext3 for maximum Linux performance
