Yes, USB flash disks appear as a SCSI drive. But the USB mass storage driver must be loaded. Check if it's loaded like this: lsmod | grep -i usb usb-storage 52236 0 (unused) scsi_mod 92488 3 [usb-storage sr_mod ide-scsi] If the usb-storage is not listed, load it: modprobe usb-storage Make a mount point for the flash disk: mkdir /mnt/flash And then mount the disk mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/flash This assumes you don't have any other SCSI disks, if you do then the flash disk will not be /dev/sda1. Also note that you may need msdos and/or vfat kernel support if the flash disk has a FAT file system. hank wrote: >>I am wanting to mount my usb flash drive Chuck wrote: > I think he was asking about a USB device. Would they use a SCSI device name?
