I have always had some form of windows running but after a while I couldnt takre it any more. So now I have no computers running windows, just linux. I have an MP3 player that I would always use on windows just cause it was easiest, but now I cant. The MP3 player doesnt requier any software, it just shows up as another hdd. this is what I get when I type mount:
/dev/hdd2 on / type reiserfs (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)

The Mp3 player is the last one (I think). but when I try to mount it I get this:
mount: /proc/bus/usb is not a block device

What should I do?

Thanks,
Sys

try this :
and then make a mount point :
and then try sda1 as the block device (usually is this by default) :
to be sure what it is being detected as, you can log in as root and type :
and then plug in your mp3 player, and see what is detected as.

It worked, Thanks a lot,
Sys

It has been working for a while but all of a sudden today I could only read and not write to it. I added -v the mount and got this:

root@Hostyle:/home/systemdownfall# mount -v /dev/sda1 /mnt/mp3
mount: you didn't specify a filesystem type for /dev/sda1
I will try type vfat
/dev/sda1 on /mnt/mp3 type vfat (rw)

is there a different file system that you think I could try that would allow me to read and also write, or is there a way I can write with vfat?

Thanks,
Sys

#mount -t auto /dev/sda1 /mnt/mp3

should be enough.

if you're using udev, i recommend configuring rules.udev so that your device is created as something like /dev/mp3, so you can insert it into /etc/fstab. It is more user friendly
