Need help mounting a Fuji Finepix E510 using Libranet (Debian Based)

This is my FSTAB

Code:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <device> <mount point>   <type>   <options>                    <dump> <pass>
/dev/hdb1  /               ext3     defaults,errors=remount-ro   0      1
/dev/hda1  /windows        ntfs     defaults,ro,gid=windows,umask=002 0      0 $
/dev/hdb2  none            swap     sw                           0      0
proc       /proc           proc     defaults                     0      0
/dev/fd0   /floppy         auto     defaults,user,noauto         0      0
/dev/scd0  /cdrom  udf,iso9660  defaults,user,noauto,ro  0  0

I'm thinking of something that will let me use my USB drives, camera, and MP3 Player. A mount point like /USBfontlower for camera and MP3 plus USB drives get /USBfronttop.

Possible?

Sorry, this is my first removable drive i've had to use in any *nix OS.

Use

LINUX not

WINDOZE

I take it you have two usb ports in the front panel of your box.

USB isusually in something like /dev/sda1 or /dev/usb/sda1 or something like that.
The second will be /dev/sda2 or sdb1 depending.

So you want a line that reads something like:

/dev/sda1 /mnt/USB1 auto defaults,user 0 0
/dev/sda2 /mnt/USB2 auto defaults,user 0 0

This should automount anything that gets plugged into the usb ports without worrying about what the filesystem is - just like a floppy.

Other than that, you want a tutorial on USB in linux - there are many, just google around. Reading the man pages for mount and fstab would be good too.
