something is wrong here...
i would like to use my nokia 3300a as usb disk, as in windows.
when i plug it in, dmsg says...
usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using address 3
scsi1 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
Vendor: NOKIA Model: 3300a Rev: 0001
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
SCSI device sda: 125152 512-byte hdwr sectors (64 MB)
sda: assuming drive cache: write through
sda: sda1
Attached scsi disk sda at scsi1, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
USB Mass Storage device found at 3
but when i try to mount iz with mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/uesbe
it says "mount: special device /dev/sda1 does not exist"
so i do:
cd /dev
./MAKEDEV sda
mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/uesbe
and its mounted ok.
now, i wonder why isnt device autocreated (and i have to makedev every
time), and how to mount it automatically when connected.
distribution is slackware 9.1 with current updates, and 2.6.6 kernel. i
slightly modified slackware .config for 2.6.6, disabled some stuff like
isdn, and compiled. i also have submount installed, can it help? tia
Did u enable devfs support? Hmm, I think you did. Just that with Slackware 9.1, you don't have the rc.udev. So I guess it would be good if you upgrade to Slackware 10.0.
