Make a moint point for it in /mnt: $> mkdir /mnt/usb_device 2. Mount it (assuming your harddrive is all IDE, *not* SCSI) $> mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb_device if you have 1 SCSI harddrive, then you need to mount /dev/sdb1, or /dev/sdc1 ir you have 2 SCSI drive, etc.. 3. See if you can get the file there $> cd /mnt/usb_device $> ls The likely thing to happen if linux doesn't recognize it is step 2 to fail. If that happens, please tell us the error message when you do step 2 ------------------------------ When I performed step 2 I got the following error: /dev/sda1: Input/output error mount: you must specify the filesystem type What exactly is this asking of me and how do I correct it? -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
