Generally this will be recognize as /dev/sda1, assuming you don't have other SCSI drive. You can try as root do: mkdir /mnt/usb mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb then "ls /mnt/usb" to see if it's mounted correctly "umount /mnt/usb " to unmount it. 2) have a link on my desktop to mount and dismount it. Create a script to do all the above. Setup a shortcut on your desktop (different way depending what destop you're using) to execute the mount and umount script on clicking. > > Is anyone doing this, I am not. I always have xterm windows open anyway it's easier for me to do it via command line since my desktop is usually burried under bunch of xterm windows. RDB -- Reuben D. Budiardja Dept.
