hi, thank you,
but when i use this, and i use the " cat /proc/scsi/scsi" i see this: Scsi1 for CD ROM Host: scsi2 channel: 00 ......................... vendor KIngston Model; DataTraveler 2.0 ........... so when i use the " mount -t vfat /dev/sda2 /mnt/myusb" i receive this error: mount: /dev/sda2 already mounted or /mnt/usb busy and when i see in the /mnt/usb folder i find that is empty!!!!! thank you |

There is nothing wrong with an empty filesystem! please check with df command also, please check how the usb device is partitionned (fdisk -l) |
Hi,
i found the solution, when we try to mount a USB device we must know in first time, if our HDD is IDE or SATA because in Linux the IDE is "hda" and the SATA and SCSI is "sda", my problem was that i have a SATA so sda, so my usb will take a sdb because it will be another disk. when i use "df -k" i see that my USB device is detecting, so i just need to mount it by "mount" command. thanks for all. |
Hi
yep. You can also use the command: lsusb to list the known devices and work from there. |
