mounting manually USB pens on 2.6 kernel

Michele Spinolo · 04-06-2005, 04:01 AM

Hi guys,

I would like to mount manually by terminal my usb pen, this was the syntax I used on old 2.4.x kernel:

mount -t vfat /dev/sda /mnt/usb

now the problem is I can't find the analogue of /dev/sda on 2.6.x kernel...

did you compile the kernel yourself?

no, it's a 2.6.11 kernel for FC3 compiled at PlanetCCRMA (http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/)

have you changed anything else?
or just the kernel?
new hotplug subsystem for instance?

the usb pen automount correctly if automount option is enabled an is listed as scsi device in cat /etc/scsi/scsi (or /dev/scsi/scsi , i do not remember)
