Excellent - please follow rtmistler's (post #33) instructions next ... |
Alright, that command worked at the usb is mounted.
/dev/sdc1 on /mnt/drive_c type vfat (rw). |

That's where you copy your files to ... : /mnt/drive_c/ |
May I remind everybody this is Gentoo, nothing is installed unless administrator decided to install it. Also, there is no automount of any kind unless administrator has chosen to set it up.
For installing software check out emerge command. |

# umount /mnt/drive_c If all is finally resolved, recommend you mark the thread as Solved, using the Thread tools in the top of the LQ page form. Then please remember the important things here, because they pretty much always apply moving forwards regarding mounting drives. Glad you are very close and sounds as if the problem is now fixed.

... and when you're done, you can unmount the USB drive before removing it, with:
umount /mnt/drive_c |
Just a really dumb question, then what is the destination file for which i am copying files to? /dev/sdc1?

You always use the mount point, not the block device. *EDIT* ... and by the way, there are no dumb questions. Linux works along the principle of "everything is a file", similarly to unix. So you "mount" devices to files to make them available to users for reading and writing operations. The file becomes an alias for the device while it is mounted - kind of like assigning a drive letter to a drive or a partition in Windows, if you're familiar with that ... Cheers :-) |
Thank you all for your help.
