Can't ls USB drive
 

Hi All,

I have a know working USB flash drive. (It works on other Linux, OS-X and even Windows machines)

On this particular machine, the device appears to automount. I can cd to the mount directory /media/UDISK_20X. However when I try to ls, I see nothing.

Here are the particulars that may be relevent:
Linux 2.6.11-1369_FC4

The fstab file contains this line:
(note this line seems to be auto generated by fstab_sync)
/dev/sda1 /media/UDISK_20X1 vfat pamconsole,exec,noauto,fscontext=system_u:object_r:removable_t, managed 0 0

I have also tried:
noauto,user,rw,exec,sync 0 0
Still doesn't work.

I have tried other devices. None seem to be working on this machine.

Any ideas?

try:
mount /dev/sda1

How embarassing.... :o

Thanks!

i've tried a couple different ways to get usb drives to auto mount, the problem i have found is if you have more then one they show up as different devices, the first one you insert will be sdb, then the next one will be sdc...

so i gave up and just mount them as i need them.
