Hello Padro, I will outline the procedure what I do when I attach my mass usb flash storage into my target, so you can see how my configuration looks like. After I boot the target the following happens: [1] Upon issuing fdisk -l command, the following is the output: Disk /dev/sda: 82.0 GB, 81964302336 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9964 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk identifier: 0x6f5756ac Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 20 160618+ b W95 FAT32 /dev/sda2 21 993 7815622+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sda3 994 4883 31246425 83 Linux [2] After I plug-in mu USB mass storage, the following I read from dmesg: [ 124.546563] scsi 2:0:0:0: Direct-Access PNY USB 2.0 FD 8192 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 CCS [ 124.548807] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] 15826944 512-byte logical blocks: (8.10 GB/7.54 GiB) [ 124.549682] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off [ 124.549694] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 43 00 00 00 [ 124.549701] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 124.552448] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 124.552468] sdb: sdb1 [ 124.555935] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 124.555946] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk [3] Now, upon issuing fdisk -l command, the following is the output: Disk /dev/sda: 82.0 GB, 81964302336 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9964 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk identifier: 0x6f5756ac Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 20 160618+ b W95 FAT32 /dev/sda2 21 993 7815622+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sda3 994 4883 31246425 83 Linux Disk /dev/sdb: 8103 MB, 8103395328 bytes 256 heads, 21 sectors/track, 2944 cylinders Units = cylinders of 5376 * 512 = 2752512 bytes Disk identifier: 0xc3072e18 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 * 1 2944 7913440+ c W95 FAT32 (LBA) _______ I see my SATA HDD as /dev/sda, while my USB is /dev/sdb . The logical move is: mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb (or whatever directory you created for mount point).

Sorry for a late response. I am able to use my mas storage device with my board. And this worked after I enabled all the codepage support and some architecture file changes related to my USB device configuration. But, now I have another issue, that is I have a USB-SATA bridge on my board which connects to the same USB Host port through a software DEMUX switch and it interfaces to normal SATA HDD. But, here I am able to get the USB-SATA bridge detected, but not the Hard disk connected to it. The Hard Disk has a single partition of 1GB FAT32 formatted. Below is the console message related to the Hard disk: > usb 1-2: New USB device found, idVendor=04c5, idProduct=2026 > usb 1-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 > usb 1-2: Product: FUJITSU MB86C31 > usb 1-2: Manufacturer: FUJITSU > usb 1-2: SerialNumber: 0000000000000001 > scsi0 : usb-storage 1-2:1.0 > scsi 0:0:0:0: Direct-Access PQ: 0 > ANSI: 5 > sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI removable disk And when I manually create a node and try to mount it, it says No Medium found: > # /busybox mknod /dev/sda1 b 8 1 > # mkdir /mnt/usb/ > # mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb/ > mount: No medium found So, do you think any other configurations I need to take care for getting this functionality working. Please help me with regards to this.
