Hi,
you are not offering a lot of debug information for people not using you specific linux distro :-| One could guess that the directory is only accessible to root ? Maybe you need to tell SUSE that your regular user may access attached flash cards ? Anyway, tell us exactly what you are doing, which buttons you are pushing, which tutorial you found on the internet and are following. A google search on "mount flash suse 9.2 tutorial" yielded the following from imdeemvp: Quote:

Thanks but it doesn't work.
If i follow these instructions i get an error in the terminal window saying "cant read superblock" whatever that means..... Anyway thanks for any help and sorry to be a pain in the ass |
Do you have the proper support compiled into your kernel? USB-Storage for USB drives? And where did the flash media get data put on it?
|
in root, make a dir in / called something like "/usbstick"
then type "mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /usbstick" this command will automatically specify filesystem type (which helps) and mount it in that dir. also, you can add a line to fstab which will do the same thing, there is a topic (search for my name) that had the fstab line u need within it. This is much simpler than using the suse automounter for flash drives. |
